Narrow gauge screenshots

Well I've been working on a version of the East Broad Top RR - it seems like forever but there may be some light at the end of the tunnel at long last. Steam trains hauling coal thru the Allegheny Mountains in south central Pennsylvania - on a small scale. The EBT was and still is a 3ft narrow gauge rr. Revenue service started in the 1870's and ended in 1956. The present day tourist line started in 1960 and ran steam until 2 years ago when operations ceased (only temporarily we hope) due to financial problems. As for my route, all track is on the ground and I've started adding some scenery and ground textures around the towns of Orbisonia and Rockhill Furnace, PA where the head quarters and general offices of the EBT RR were located. It's still very much a work in progress but I have a number of screenshots that didn't make my other thread on the EBT. I'll post a few here and a maybe a few in the USA steam thread.

Pardon #66's open filler cap, was a bit of a glitch that I've corrected since then.

Dropped off two cars at the Tunnel, #70 can probably take this train on her own now but #66 has business at Silver Plume and so will stay on.
Just to show that I'm not totally idle at the moment.:p
 
@ trainboi1

I like your shots. Can you tell me, what Bridge is it in Pict. 2 and/or 5 ? Please tell me the kuid-Number oder Link. Thanks a lot.

It's on the DLS, as with all non-custom content on the route(which will be put on the DLS when the route is done) and is by user David111767. It's <KUID:181672:100032> or 'Reskined Devils Gate Bridge 1' if you want to search by name.
Different font settings FTW!

Convince me??? Dude, I want to, but things take time, and I'm feeling lazy at the moment.
Also, correct me if I'm wrong but I thought the 40 and 44 were only bought during the preservation days of the Loop. They aren't C&S-era engines and never worked the Central City line, to my knowledge at least, even in preservation. You get moguls and Baldwin consolidations for that.;) I do also hope to be getting plans for Gilpin #1 soon, and will be working on it once #70 and 74-76 are out of the shops...Probably the Georgetown depot too, it needs a proper model, not just a reskin.:)

sorry for being so late with this:

44, at least, did work on the Central City Line: I've talked with one of the volunteers who worked there over at the NG Discussion Forums. And anyway, we need a good model of those two Guatemalan Baldwins sooner or later!
 
I can't wait to buy those englands off you Ed, how have you set up the coal and water consumption as i have tried with linda and blanch but it can't cope with one being on the loco and one in the tender?
thanks

It's one of Clam1952's 2ft gauge tracks. I'm not sure if any of the dry some embankment versions have been fully releases yet.
