Best Trainz Routes?

[RuvanJ]

Hey guys, kinda new to the forums, just want to ask what are the best routes that are floating about for trainz. I really would like a route something like the Feather River Canyon Railroad (Even this route in General), I tried out Dragons pass (By the way, good route) but i would like to see some more epic routes.

Summary of what i like in general: Mountainous, Curvy, high grades, tunnels, bridges (Especially bridges that are very high up), cliff side ledge tracks, and tracks that go very high up

i dunno why he's posting just a link to JR when you asked for mountainous routes. There's only one mountainous route from JR, and it's a goodie

You might find what you're looking for on my website. The two newest routes are the Cumberland to Connellsville Update, and the Cumberland to Harpers Ferry.

Don't forget your WM and B&O mega route, there's a few hills in that.

I might make a route for you, because I am searching for something like that too. The only problem is that I have TRS2006. Photo LARS and Basic Industry sets are what I am probably going to use. It will take some time though and I am not as expert as other route builders are. Also, TPR content is pretty good and they might have a route.

Probably not one of the best, but it fits your description. Mills & Festering RR by yours truly... on the DLS.

Checkrail.com has some routes that are detailed and will fit your description.

If you are considering payware, IMHO Murchison 2 is one that's right up there!!! - http://www.trainzone.co.nz/index.htm

I'll second that, but be sure to buy from the site Mac provided. I notice they have some others as well, albeit not particularly mountainous.

My favorite is the Highland Valley Routes (There's Highland Valley and Highland Valley Industries, slight difference between them). They are the size of three baseboards, a double-track mainline running around the base of a mountain, a branchline climbing the mountain to serve three towns and two coal mines. Plus a yard, roundhouse and steel mill located at the bottom of the mountain at the beginning of the branchline. It provides a lot of action in a small space. I just wish I had the skills to make that into a 'real-life' model railroad, not a virtual model railroad.

 

[JJstrainz]

Speaking of which, does anyone know of a free CP rail route through the rockies? And if not, does someone know of a DEM map?

If you're in to narrow gauge, try the Llewllyd Valley Railway by, err, me, and Sandy River SP4 by slugmasher.
