That's absolutely brilliant Gordon. It'll be a work of art when it's done.

We see a mid morning Matangi running from Waikanae to Wellington, at Plimmerton

The Matangi is still causing people to look twice

Nice photos guys. nzld, where may I find those dsg's like those? They look very good.

Anyway, here are a couple of screenies from my Mount Maunganui to Kawerau log and paper route.
Here we see train C70 in it's trip to the Mount. Note, on this route it's very common to see a new DL
and an old DC together.

Next screenshot shows a signal problem. Good that the xing and signals are circuited together.

Hmmm, if they're the Smart Signals, I don't think they work until you programme them. I could be wrong, I set mine up a long time ago now. If it's not that, are the tracks properly connected to the level crossing? Sometimes you think they are but they aren't.

Could the signal error be caused by the 2 switch levers either side of the crossing?

There is nothing wrong with the signals. I've purposely put a invisible track either side of the crossing and switched them so they are not facing the train. Therefore the crossing doesn't come down. And that's why the signals are red.

Mrrangi, how is your Waikanae route progressing? Very keen to have a turn :)
Also Ryan_McC, is the Waikanae route in your screenshots available?

Can anyone else help me out, I'm struggling to find good NZ routes! Freeware or payware!

Hello James, Yes My "Kapiti line" route is coming along great, It shouldn't be long now just need to do the stretch between Tawa and Wellington. It won't be up for download until all five lines are done, but if you send me a nice PM, I might send the "Kapiti line" to you once I've finished that little bit. Mate I agree with you, We need more NZ routes up for download. Mrrangi:D
