FEC Key West extension modern day

[brickbuilder711]

Traffic light progress;

 

[brickbuilder711]

New from the heels of progress are:

Big Pine Key Auto Ramp, a ramp designed to alleviate congestion in Key West:

And... The Moser Channel Draw has been formatted to allow trains through at FEC's speed limit, 30 MPH.

Do I see a train now? Or not?

Looks promising BB, but "the heels of progress"? That's one I've not heard before!

Probably a play of words

Maybe hills of progress too? Oh wait, we're talking flat terrain!

Hey Brickbuilder!

Have you downloaded Jankvis' Palm Trees #1-5? There's also a Mediteranean Palm Tree(They are short and fat) in both 7m and 10m. Anyways, Nice route!

Think they're dependencies. I think the "Tree Palm" assets look more impressive.

The query today was the imposing of touches on existing areas that could use additional items, this is right at the entrance to the City of Key West.

Hope 1280x800 is the most optimal... Trainz HD in Widescreen!

Very nice (as always) Brickbuilder. It's tough making anything related to an urban setting and making it look decent, but you seem to have pulled it off!

:wave:

Gisa ^^

Not that many realistic 1990s - 2000s buildings are quite out there, thanks a lot! Do expect more strip malls soon!

I'm not familier with the area, but wonder why one bridge is so much more elevated than the other. If waterborn traffic is restricted by the nearest bridge, why is the other not the same?

Further on I read claims of 1,000ths of an inch accuracy. About the best to be had in this age of GPS is about +-10m unless you kinow something different.

Nice route btw.

Thanks, I did wonder about that.

Edit - Mmmm, I should have viewed the whole thread.

Have a look at these 100 houses and 20 or so garage extensions. I've had a look at the Keys in maps.live.com in Birds Eye view and think these will be spot on.

LX_fh_no_1 to LX_fh_no100 - kuids 75263:27100 to 75263:27199

LX_garaz_a to LX_garaz_k - kuids 75263:27211 to 75263:27222

LX_garaz_s_dilnou_a to LX_garaz_s_dilnou_k - kuids 75263:27223 to 75263:27234

They are available in packs from the DLS. Type in 75263 and make sure you tick-box KUIDS and 2004

REPORT FROM FLORIDA KEYS:

Just as you can say the RR died at Sea, my laptop's key component to the hard drive died as well.

I'm using my desktop, and I had quite some progress to show as well, but it is unavailable. :'(

However applying to chkdsk showed this:

So I do remain hopeful that just the file got lost, not the actual drive. I plan on getting a new one and using the current externally to transfer to a new drive. I remember having 100 or so GB in there.

I have accomplished a truss arm streetlight in the weekend, and one would know how much I really wanted to share photos of it. Also, some accuracies are fixed, and as would be anyway, PICTURES, PICTURES, PICTURES!

Old FEC Spur to Homestead AFB

SHOWDOWN!!!

C-11 Canal

Jewfish Creek Bridge

 

[brickbuilder711]

OK, guess what? The laptop is operational again! I think the laptop was exposed to something that distracted the pc but at home the laptop works again.

I have the photos I did not show for almost a week so here goes!

Some correlate to the real stuffs...

Dave,

Tried typing FMA on the scenery to see if I have static grass, and guess what, these houses are already there!
