Not perfect, I get a serious amounts of lag around the first few shots. Can someone please help me find some great trees that don't murder frames. But that is the NCCR for you. Part two will start soon.

I want to release the route within the month but I can't. My gpu's fan is not working and playing trainz with my other graphics card is unbearable. So I just have to wait.
 
Looks excellent amtrak......looking at those screens i can see you've been busy.......a pile of work there.
Thank You! I have replaced some of the trees with non-speedtrees. But I have to order a replacement fan. I hope you guys enjoy my work, I want to get the route into other hands before 2014. And I have been busy, I completed the first section with section two on the way. But my computer is really stopping me. Here are a few shots of my work before my fan died.

I'm all about the Acela!

You have seen in previous shots the Acela stretch its legs, topping 179mph but what about the GG1. The king, of the Northeast Corridor for more than 50 years!
Makes its way to the NCCR Mainline, for a little mainline fun.

It is Alive!
Got My Graphic card to cool down and work will progress. I completed the new Union Transit center sub tracks. For passing trains, on to the new portion. I asked a buddy of mine by the name of RZTaylorJr at Trainz Commuter Rail for a DEM of the upper portion of the Northeast Corridor from New Haven to Boston. The DEM is amazing and I thank him five times over if I could. And work will start immediately. I do't have any progress shots but there coming, as well the NCCR v1. Soon, like this month soon.

New tunnel portal to the station

Give it two weeks and it should look like a High Speed Corridor.
 
I want to release, but the frames for the route are too low, I am trying to get it too work in native trainz 2010. I have to replace alot of assit that are not working in native. But it is almost there.
 
If you need help for getting it to work in TS12, i could help. I have holidays now, and it seems like you used similar content like the one i used for the proto NEC :D

Merry Christmas btw :)

Thanks, but I have had to replace a lot of my speed trees with non-speedtrees. I hope that doesn't takeaway from the route. As I have spent a lot of time working on this route, I have now about 300 miles worth of baseboards in the games only 150 miles of it is tracked. So this route may be my dream killer/computer.
 
Well I got the route to have stable frames but most of all in certain sections are gone. And frames are amazing. So, work for release is close. Real Close.
Here is the effect from speed trees removal. I know it doesn't look how my past screenshots looked but I have a really huge route and the more speedtrees i have the less the route will be able to run on less powerful computers. Here is the out come.

Well I have been working on the route, I have a new section done but that is still a WIP. I wanted to release but I had a couple of buddies of mine told me no, as much work still must be done, but they liked the route. So I took their advice and will work on improving the route.

I fixed frames in the area, and I still have to add catenary inside the station but I will get to that soon.
 
Well Here is a little bit of news, the route is now 324 miles long. In a regional it will take you 4-4 1/2 hours to complete in an Acela 3-31/2. I startd a trip at 5:50 ended at 10:00.
But The route is still a wip and here are some screenshots. Not a lot though.
