BNSF - Northwest Division

[evan123]

Everett Washington to Portland, and onto the yard at Pasco Washington.

Here are the first few shots of this route, an SD60 & ES44 take the head of a manifest consist coming out of the shuttle yard off the waterfront in Everett.

The Kimberly Clark plant always needs the rail, freight is constantly being dropped & picked up.

I always liked that track on USLW site...how are the framerates working ?

The track swirls are possibly remedied by antiailiasing you video card settings ?

Looking forward to seeing more screenshots.

 

[evan123]

The framerates so far are working just great on my machine. The tracks are "low poly", so we'll how it holds up in a dozen or so more boards.

Here we have a consist leaving the yard in Everett and onto the mainline.

Very nice. It looks like a foggy, misty day in Everett, WA.

I'm liking it also! Where can I D/L it, or is it available yet??

Nice job so far! Lookn' forward to some more pics. Oh, and by the way, where did you get that low-poly track? I've been wanting some realistic, low-poly track for a while. So, anyway, thanks!

This route will be evenly replicating the whole BNSF mainline down to the mouth of the Columbia and then to Pasco Washington, it won't be finished until well after Christmas, sorry!

Here we are this "morning" as we have a consist heading into the Mukilteo station. Before we go through the station the train passes through a small tunnel.



It comes barreling out of the yard blasting its horn as it makes good speed through the station.



Here we see the MoW to the right preparing for a days work as the consist makes its way down the line.



Add your own caption for the rest.

Oh and also on a further note, if anyone has a nicely weathered & working BNSF SW7 or SW1500 switcher, I would be very appreciative if someone could point me in the right direction for one.

Unstraightened track after a switch spotted in the third pic. :hehe:

There are some BNSF SWs on the USLW site. Have a look.

Cheerio,
Nicholas.
