Backdating is fun.
If you saw the thread on the Freeware Announcements forum, then you'd know about my new route, the Catalpa Wood Railroad. Here are some pics of it (work in progress).
We see 2-8-0 18, 2-6-0 8, and 4-6-0 23 at one of the three roundhouses.

very nice railroad, but, uh, may i make one little suggestion?

I noticed in the shot of the scrapyard, the end-of-track bumpers are the british buffer type. Since this is an american route, you may think about using an american style one. Actually, the TTR-trackend types built in to TRS2006 onwards are pretty nice, even for builtin content. There is an asset out there called US_bumper 2 Rusty (it might actually be Yellow Rusty, i can't verify as i'm not at my trainz computer) that looks pretty good, though the "rust" is bright orange, or bright yellow, i can't quite quite figure out which one is which.

Just a freindly tip that you can take as you will. And thank you for enduring my ramblings...few people do. :hehe: :o
