Im sure this has probably been asked and answered already, but im a bit slow with reading!, Is this kind of track available yet in DLS? or is it part of trains2009?

Apart from that, those screenies are stunning, top job :P

For some reason when I took these pics I had the trainz tuner off so you can't see as far as you usually could. Oh well.
Some places familiar to people.





















Cheers. Daniel

it is the same bridge i had always been told the bridge was located at Saddliers crossing.

work on ipswich is coming on well i have just changed computer set ups and have had to download the content i needed for a fresh version of the game.
scottling i have several beta for ipswich when you see those appear on the dls you wil know ipswich is not far behind.

a warning to all ipswich does need a large amount of content to fill it out when it finally gets to the DLS.

cheers

Very nice Ghosty.

Here's some of my own...

Helensvale. At this point of my trip, real life got in the way and the rest of the journey was taken in the dark.

Hi All

Tonight saw the departure of another train from the ZR workshops to the Auran DLS. It consisted of 8 T classes, plus a string of unknown wagons...

I was thankfully able to actually go out and watch the departure, however I was only able to chase it from the ZR workshops to Dhura Oon, and I've not had word if it has made it through or not.

Anyway, the reason why I'm posting here... The screenshots :) Warning, these are 1680*1050 images (behind the thumbs that is).


TS2009 sits at the head of the consist at the ZR workshops platform prior to departure...


Having departed the workshops, the train is seen hurrying along the dual gauge track just outside the workshops.


TS2009 hurries through Devon Junction with ditch lights flashing. Thankfully they slowed down enough to drop the staff off!


Now on the mainline, the train is seen coasting through Dhura Oon's mainline road.


The final shot of the night sees the T's coasting across the small creek just outside of Dhura Oon.

Have fun!

The cab is built-in for TS09. It's the new cab for the new SD40-2 :) Used for the cab in my T's in the last post, temporarily of course...

Just quoting your excellent pics there, I see that you are making staggering progress on this. I was trying to build the same system but I'm at least three years from completion. You see, I'm doing the whole CityTrain network. And it will take a while, unless I get some help. But anyhoo, nice pics! I see you updated the Robina Station to include the new setup what with Skilled Park stadium in. These stations, their detail, it is, 'ow you say, tres magnifique.
I see you're not using the QR Catenary though. Not that it matters. And now I ask the inevitable: is it coming on the DLS?
 
Thanks Mitchey, Scottling & Ausrail8040.

Scottling, I've been working on this since I got TRS06 (sometime in 2006) & only have Northgate-Caboolture to go.

As I work for QR, I am unable to share this route. Remember when a guy came onto this forum a while ago boldly proclaiming he was now a railway employee & was offering to share QR info to anyone who asked? You may also remember I told him where he'll end up if he did that - not in QR. I'm sure Lenice will agree with me on that one. If you travel on the train, you can see the same stuff that everyone sees and put it into your routes, that's all I've done. As anyone who has built a prototypical route will tell you, it takes a keen eye, a good memory... and Google Earth.

I'm not telling you where to go, just explaining how it is. I've started to put up these screenies because I'm proud of my efforts to date and people seem to like them (thanks guys). If you don't like them, so what? Also, as a tribute to all of the creators who created the content, to show them that it is used and appreciated. Also, I have learnt a lot of building techniques by seeing others' screenies and if someone learns something from mine, their Trainz experience will be more realistic. That's what this forum's all about after all.

PS Scottling, I DO so have Sonne03's brilliant catenary in places, that cab view Mitchey refered to has some of it lit up by the headlight, hehehe. It's just that rewiring hundreds of km's of line already built is a hell of a job and unless it's needed, I couldn't be stuffed. Hopefully there'll be some spleens coming along:wave:

Don't worry about time required for building your route - it will happen, and if you don't feel like building for a while, stop. You're not getting paid for it, it's a hobby.

Thanks for the kind words all.

Ryan
