[caddylars]

Just posting a few shots of a yard i have been working on
Planning on a shortly release, if theres any interest.
Note that theres still a lot of work to be done

Heres some facts:

The yard is fully fictional, and named after my Beautiful little Daughter
20 Baseboards
12 Reciving Tracks
5 Departure Tracks
12 Sorting Tracks
17 Private Tracks
10 Local Tracks
56 Hump tracks, with fully working Retarders
2 fully working Humps
Engine facility
Track maintenance facility
Turntables
Scale
5 junctions for Future conection. 2 main and 3 branch.
Each track has a named trackmark, for easy sorting etc

First up is the track maintenance facility


A little piece of the yard


A piece of the Engine facility


Loco Heading North


Leaving the yard


Just a nature shot


Let me know what you think, is it worth it?

Awesome. As usual a fine eye for details. How many base boards and what kind if frame rates?

How's your daughter? Hope her health is better.

Hi Lars,

Geezzz you believe in going big don't you. Yes a great yard with lots of details, fantastic. But if I can be a little critical, I don't like the aussie round house and turntable, it sits too far above the ground level and causes a sharp incline when going on to the turntable. I also don't like the builtin USA turntable it has a false stop between roundhouse tracks.
Apart from that is great.

Cheers,
Bill69

Hi Bill

Thanks for your comments and critics.
I do agree about the Turntable, never actually noticed that.
I will change it as soon as i find a bether one

BTW: Bigger is Bether:hehe: (CN's philosophy when they buildt the Tascherau Yard in 1961 at a cost of $28.5 million)

Its a Russian crane and actually there are several different ones. The difficulty is that the website is in Russian and someone was kind enough to provide a link directly to them. I will search for the thread that has the link. Oh yes they are top quality.

Edit: here is the website http://railroadsim.net/en/downloads/trainz/special_rs

 

[leeferr]

Those shots are absolutely outstanding. You've done some great work there. I'm also interested in the gate in the first shot.

Looking forward to some more shots.
