My Southeastern Railroad (big pics maybe)

What are you looking at?
This is a layout I've been working on, it is a layout of a fictional US shortline railroad with a terminal, a branchline, and a connection to a main, non-specific rail line! It's gone through countless incarnations, and I've endured countless CTD's, and corruption to get it up and going! The layout is set in the late 50's-early 70's, but beyond that, it doesn't really have much of a detailed history, it's mostly a playground for the trains I like! Here, take a look:

Here's the roundhouse at the westernmost end. Plenty of space for engines!

Freight yard near the docks:

The passenger terminal:

The other side, with trains waiting:

A branch ine goes off here, then rejoins further up:

Tunnel through the hill, with the abandoned older tunnel next to it:

The next station, with the dead line in the background:

Another view of the dead line, with a bunch of derelict engines and cars littered around it:

Freight station just north of the scrap line:

So that's the route so far! Am I going to release it? Probably not. As some of you probably noticed, it is SI3D's Island of Sodor route, fairly substantially modified and set in the US. So I thought I'd just share some of my touches that may inspire some of you all! There's much more to see, so stay tuned!
 
Here, a train is going through the station!

Here's a junction you may recognize from the Sodor route! The branch on the right, I haven't decided what to do with yet. I'm thinking about maybe a coal mine, probably if I get around to buying Jointed Rail's layout... But for now, it's just a layup:

Another town...

And it continues...

Possibly by holding down on the [ ] keys your textures will be rotated, smudged, and smeared ... and a dirtier more weathered texture would look prototypical, and not so bright, and manicured golf course look to it

Bright, and manicured golf course look is what I'm going for!:p
 
The railroad has its own Billups Neon signal! The siren doesn't work, though, probably due to some disgruntled sleep-deprived resident vandalizing it! Sadly, like the real thing, its days are numbered...

Finally put the branch to use, as a spur to a small coal mining village!

The spur is still (supposed to be) protected by watchmen waving lanterns! But they never actually have anybody at the crossings!

The little mining village...

And the mines served!

Looks like you have put a lot of time and work into your layout, I like the abandoned smaller Tunnel, next to the new 2 track one, looks nice.

Thanks for sharing.;)
 
Now here's an interesting piece from my layout, it's what I like to call "The Forgotten Branch"! It's an abandoned branchline to an abandoned town, and an abandoned mine! Here's where it branches off...

Here we have the abandoned mine...

My-Trainz-Screenshot-Image.jpg


And here's the town, full of abandoned, dilapidated, and boarded up buildings!

A view from the other end...

Even as you approach by road, you'll find emptiness...
