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

So far, only one. I live on the other side of the state, just have friends over in Roanoke. 1 SD90/43MAC on the Norfolk District, only 90/43 I've seen and 1 of about 15 that have ventured the line in recent years(Including non-NS).
 
Thank you scratchy, I posted a couple more videos that day, I just don't have any time, my YouTube username is conrailgp35, I try to get more up this weekend, I wish I could convert my vhs, many hours of watching, thanks aging, :wave:
 
Yeah man, the Subaru is broken so I gotta do something ;) To everyone else, Mick was a meany and pushed the recent shots onto the previous page, take a look. :)
 
Glad to see you're still at it scratch! Do you have any plans to convert the route to TANE?

I'll be working on my Frisco High Line route in TANE once the new hot fix comes out. Looks like there are some really nice TANE compatible speedtreez on the DLS now. :D
 
Cheers guys! :) Well spotted on the reskins Chad, hopefully they will be available on JR shortly after I do a few more skins (any suggestions/photos??)

Havn't actually got hold of a copy of TANE yet mate, hoping to shortly but also hoping to get the summer pack of TS2015 too off steam (shush). The route will have to be brought up to the latest for release I'd imagine. :)
 
If this route is done, where do I look? I have both K&L Trainz's Nickel Plate Road 765 and PRR 1361 and I want to run them over the hill.
 
It's not called "The Hill", it crosses a series of Appalachian Front Range mountain folds

Leaving Altoona (elevation 1319'), the railroad travels at a 1.76% grade up the East Slope of the Alleghenies, negotiating the famous Horseshoe Curve during that climb. Past the curve, the Pittsburgh Line continues to climb a grade of 1.86% to the small town of Gallitzin, where the mainline reaches the top of its climb at 2,167 feet above sea level, the total westward climb amounting to 12 miles. From there, the railroad descends the Alleghenies' West Slope down to Johnstown (elevation 1142'), a total distance of about 25 miles, of an @ -1.10% gradient.

Sorry, I've been running on Sherman Hill for "Railworks 2016" quite a bit. I just recently started playing Trainz 12 and T:ANE again.
