Just restart the computer. You may get a EDR when opened again. It always works for me.

Keep calm and try it out.

Hi all,
Believe it or not I am actually still alive... Been installing tons of assets to get SP1 up to speed, took a holiday to Bali and have been mucking about more and more with me and my mates Subarus' aha. Route is still going, but I've been running on a lower resolution to keep frame rates up (can anyone suggest any good value towers?) and I've not been happy with the screenshot quality. Alas, here is a couple





Check out this video from Cresson the other week, derailment right in front of the depot lol

Yeah ... it rolled the rail over, and the rail bent up like it was made of rubber.

Fortunately that area is @ a 1% uphill gradient, and the wheels just dug into the ballast and ties, and the rolled over rail kept the wheels in line.

Looking good Rich. Glad to see you're still at it!

 

[MeowRailroad]

Oh, that is a train antenna! I thought it was but wasn't sure.

 

[scratchy]

Can I flippin give this route to you guys yet? haha

Also does anyone know what I've done/ how to fix the smoke having a purple hue? Transitions on my textures seem to have it too



This 11000t coal (105 cars) with 6 locos took an hour to get from South Fork to the summit...





Heres a shot I took from across the road Oct 2013. https://www.flickr.com/photos/93191257@N06/16362167938/in/photostream/

 

[chris2001trainz2010]

Sure! I'll definitely take it, done or not!

I was just telling the wife I am ready to go sit by the tracks and watch some trains, this dose not help, looking great scratchy, :wave:

here some lite power move, me and the wife and kids did some rail fanning

Cresson used to be really interesting before they tore out the Ebensburg line Upper yard Flyover bridge, to the Lower yard, as well demolishing MO tower (which collapsed in an attempted relocation move).

I have more from that day, I will get it up slowly, my files are huge, takes for ever to upload, I was glad to catch that lite power move, I have one more on my YouTube page, mix intermodal train headed east, I was to little to remember the bridge, I started watching when that was all done, :wave:

 

[scratchy]

wow Conrail, you must have nearly caught every sd90 NS owns in that move

 

[MeowRailroad]

Is that an Australian iron ore diesel?

 

[PBY357]

yes, lots of foreign power moves across the Pittsburgh line, mostly exports to Australia and Brazil.

wow Conrail, you must have nearly caught every sd90 NS owns in that move

Nice shot! They were SD80MAC's though, the SD90/43MAC's are all still in UP colors and will be downgraded so they're essentially just a long SD70ACe.

 

[PBY357]

will be downgraded so they're essentially just a long SD70ACe.

From my understanding, the 9043's were just getting SD70ACe electronics, just like the 80Macs and keeping their prime mover.

From my understanding, the 9043's were just getting SD70ACe electronics, just like the 80Macs and keeping their prime mover.

Not what I heard, I know a foreman over in Roanoke and he said they were going to remoter them with SD70ACe engines.

 

[PBY357]

Your probably right, have you seen any down in your parts? I see them quite a bit on the Pitt Line now a days.

Looks good scratchy, really love this route.
