On Google Earth, and Bing Maps, you can clearly see that South Fork Flyover earthen ramp (now completely schwubbery covered) that starts guite a ways east of South Fork. The interlocking diagram you showed is correct.

Thanks fellas,
I dont think their FSF textures.. umm i'll have a look, I can give u the name but I honestly wouldnt be able to tell you where I got them from lol.
Im sure no-ones gonna be suing me over having a house where a basketball court should be (well maybe cascade, lol) but i like to get it right.

Theres a lot still to be done, I'm waiting on some custom content to be made before some areas can be completed but other then that its just slow going. Both Johnstown and Altoona still need a large amount of attention, its very difficult to place houses and roads on such steep slopes... Texturings also a bit of a pain for me, some areas are really hard to get right. I guess I'm a bit of a perfectionist, if i look on bigmaps and see a chruch should be in that city block, ill either find a building pretty close to it or leave it blank, hence all the empty towns...

If you are modeling modern NS in Altoona, I can't imagine how you could do it and not include a Sheetz in Altoona:

And now I'm wanting some Benzel's pretzels too... sigh...

(PS. the post in the link is from a Pittsburghian, hence his complaint, but the pic is, I believe, of an Altoona Sheetz I've stopped at)
Ha, sounds like its a pretty snazzy gas station, maybe Euphod would consider doing a reskin if there isnt already a model availble for trainz? If the guy in that letter is getting so emotional about it I guess I'll have to put one or two on the route! lol
P.s welcome to the forums Jon

sorry Euphod, i got in late last night or the moring, 
, scratchy, you will need one at cresson, if you look on google map route 53, and state route 2014/admiral peary hwy, theres one right in the coner, then when you go under the brige mc d's is on that side, hope that helps, :wave:
