New route im working on -- Dunsmuir, CA

[SP_OR_BUST]

In California. This runs up the i-5 coridor and is the old SP Shasta Line which UP now uses from Oregon to Sacramento. This is a pic of my sd70m's passing the small yard and town of Dunsmuir.

Heres a couple new pics

There are 2 yards in Dunsmuir. An upper which is the main yard and a lower yard at the other end of town. That is a long staging yard i will do next. Heres the main yard featuring the only turntable still in service in the US today and i doubt ill do much more to it because its a small yard to begin with

Dunsmuir yard before i made final changes today

Don't know where you got that idea. There are tons of turntables in operation in the US. Not only on museum/tourist lines, but also on more major railroads. I use one every time I'm running the train at Tennessee Valley Railroad, we have two in operation, one we use everyday.

Hi. I love all your locomotives! How do I insert the road numbers on them?

xero the arn numbering is auto. Some of my stuff does not have arn but the newest stuff does. If your using a loco that has arn but you want a specific # then use the ? to change it in the drop down list bottom right hand side when you place the loco on the track

I just checked all the Locomotives that I downloaded from westcoast trainz. The NS SD70m-2, The CSX SD70ace, The BNSF ES44ac and the CSX S40-2s. I placed all these horses in the route and clicked on the question mark and selected a road number. (for the type of locomotive it is, I selected the appropriate number. CSX Has the SD70aces which are numbered 4831- 4850. I used numbers into that range.) I did notice when I first clicked on the question mark that there a number set already within the accurate range, however once I confirmed my selection the number would not appear on the locomotive in surveyor, nor driver. How can I fix it?

make sure you have tpr's arn stuff. Its all on the dls. If your trying to make these work in 04 i have not created for that version since 06. If you need further help its best you visit our site for more help. I do not come here as often as i am there but others can help as well. BTW the csx ace and ns m2 were painted by sureshot28 but ive used them numerous times with no issues at all.

Heres a shot f the Dunsmuir yard reworked. I had to add the Sacremento River in the mix and change out my track to wood instead of concrete
