Australian screenshots

I think you took them name "Red Bank" a tad to seriously:p

Looking great so far Ghostryder:D , looking forward to both Dredd's 1700/1720 and your Ipswich route...Almost enough to make me consider making me cross the border:eek:

Nat, as well as the train itself, I love the scenery, especially the level crossing, with little touches like the road barrier. Is that a custom item you folks have made for the route, or is the level crossing available for download from someone else?


cook - the scenery on your route is very impressive :D. Love it :D

Davido, you're right, that route is a treat - that wouldn't be Beresfield (a good station - been there both times I've been to The Hunter), would it?

Return soon Ghostryder!

Took another timetabling-test-run along my line with the Endeavour Set - found a couple of boo-boos, the coal train which is supposed to be crossed by the passenger train managed to SPAD and foul the mainline, which left me stopped at a red signal at Fettlers Creek wondering what was going down...

Between Fettlers Creek and Gurraburra.

Crossing 8202/8160 (resident locos of this line, it seems) with a coalie. After the passenger train enters the station, the line clears for them to cross over into the branch.

Coal wagons start moving, clearing the line ahead, as passengers jump on.

The line parallels the highway for a bit between Gurraburra and Linxton Loop.

EDIT: Was wondering, Davido/Natvander, do you guys have any plans for some weathered 44's, for running on LVRF trains? The 44's you guys are modelling look great, but seem a bit clean for LVRF's "standards". No dramas - am loving the 620's shots :D

Grasshopper, love the details there, thats pretty spot on! May I ask what you used for the Station Buildings?

Also, how do you find that OHW works with the S-Set on the DLS? I ask because whenever I try to wire my routes, the OHW never fits the U-set/S-Set and the B-Set models, it's always one or the other.

Fantastic scene though, that layout looks awesome :D

It's Hamilton, right?

Yep, tis Hamilton. Well those wires are tempory and I have never wondered whether they fit. (I actually should get back into getting some of the short north done, just to boring though:p)

that wouldn't be Beresfield (a good station - been there both times I've been to The Hunter), would it?

Yep, is Beresfield but like Hamilton, the buildings etc are just tempory. I'm making custom stations (:'() for the whole route.

Thats fantastic news. Yes, it's a massive effort in your part, but just think about how worth it it will be for you to drive down your route, and think "not only did I build all of this, I actually made those stations from scratch".

I'll be quite an achievement by the time you get to the end of the line (pun intended).

Keep up the good work Grasshopper
 
cook, just a quick note to say - I love the detail in the yard, the warped tracks is awesome. Are you going to add any long grasses to show the tracks are overgrown, or just leave them looking decript?

Nice work :D

Most Likely a light sprinkle of grass.
