Well done, Steveo241!

Your bridges cross Paint Creek. And you did get Cub Run at that corner and up the hill and canyon.

Just checking.. Did you download the:

Conifere - pack2005 from http://www.trainzitalia.com/vbulleti...atid=38&id=578


and trees and grasses and shrubs from both pages 1 and 2 at:

http://www.greenery.name/mstsg/mstsgd.htm?trainz,1


That way your scenery will be complete!

Again good job... and you don't look like a noob to me!

I'm not authorized to view that page...They think I'm a noob.

By the way, I made a house for myself on a hill by Babcock Siding:

And I just caught a coal run on the way to get loaded up:

The first link should produce a pop up - make sure you don't have pop ups disabled... the second link does not require login and should be up and running. Try it again soon!

Looks good - Retire to the mountains and watch the trains -- that should be 40 mph track just east on the main line from the Babcock spur to the old mines..... Sit back on the porch and watch the trainz zip on by.

That is not bothering anyone -- that's what this thread if for.... posting some cool pics of places and scenes you like. Let's see some more!

Now that I have been informed by my landowner that I can take pictures from my house, I can take them freely and as best as I can! So here we go!

A Few Minutes ago, I caught the daily coal train to the plant about 3 or 4 miles up the line.

The lashup:

Through the trees:

And, I caught a few F7's pulling some Pullman Coaches over by the crossings:

More to come soon. As soon as I upload these, I'm heading over to the bridges to the right of where my house is.

'Till then,

STEVE 241

Local on the Vonny Branch

The conductor throws the switch to the abandoned coal spur to pick up these two box cars.

The engineer backs over the crossing to allow traffic through while the conductor throws the switch to the siding.

ENJOY!

Ok as promised to you BillM, here's my first screenshot of your route. Sorry it's late but I had some issues with the trucks of all my rolling stock, which I got fixed.





The BWCX (Berwind Mining Corporation) rolling stock consists of twelve mining cars, which stretch on the Babcock Mining Co. siding around the bend to the left (in the distance).

Looks good.

I hope you like running the branches! :wave:

Stepping lightly on old rail, the Grafton Local puts wheat on the move as it switches out Ag-Coops on the Grafton Industrial track..

Brand new SD-60 units are in charge of the Hunter Ridge Local today as the crew places a cut of hoppers for loading. This coal will be combined in a train of export coal from off the Babcock Spur bound for the Grafton Docks and export to Korea.
