Newbie here...are there any Marine Container Terminal scenarios or routes?

[beach_rail]

I just purchased Trainz 2010 and I've been looking around for some good examples of container marine terminal operations and layouts. I haven't been able to find much so far although there's enough info here to choke a horse if you're new at this...almost overwhelming. I live near the ocean and several marine terminals...I'd like to try and model a layout based on a container operations yard with ship loads & discharges, yard stacks, RTG cranes, and a nice intermodal rail operation. Anything you could point me to that I could study and learn from would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I can't think of any offhand, but I think Caddylars created one or two routes (Ida Terminal, maybe Emma Yard too) which might give you the look and feel of transloading freight. Go to http://www.gaurc.us.

Keep in mind there are quite a lot of non-U.S. routes that may have port operations. I just can't think of any.

Ages ago I did this, but I'm not sure if it will work in TS2010:
