My New Project - Broken Hill - Sydney

[Falken442]

I've started a new project in Trainz and it does sound like something crazy to do but I want something awesome that I can acheive.
I'm currently doing a fictional creation of the Broken Hill to Sydney line it will have the names and everything from the actual line but will not be acurate, it will look similar with signals, sidings stations, but not trackwork.

I've started with Parkes because if I get bored with making the line to Sydney, I can go over to the Parkes to Broke Hill section. I've only gotton Parkes Station and the small yard area around the station done, and thats only trackwork and points.

Here are some photos:
Looking onto the Examiners sidings and Comet sidings

The Station:

A View of the eastern end of the platform, I was testing with some NRs.


A View of the whole station, ignore the random tree.



Let me know what you think so far

It looks interesting but I wonder how many baseboards it will need? If you think the line from Parkes to Sydney is boring, then the line to Broken Hill must be mind numbing.

Don't forget to add the Elvis impersonators to Parkes since it is the town's main attraction in January. Probably some deep space dishes as well. :hehe:

The line is good if you like container and wheat/grain trainz. With the baseboards Ive already figured out the length to manildura, 10 basboards. I win't need the dish and what I will probably do with the layout is find a elvis scenery item and put a few in every January.
