Overhills & Faraway

[angelah]

Hello all,
Yes, yet another new route!
It started as an experiment and again I got carried away and Lo and Behold it turned into this. I have put shots in the UK screenshots section so won't repeat those here, these are of the finished layout, but not necessarily in any order.

The Falls Bridge

Swynnerton Munitions Works

The single line approach to Swynnerton

Swynnerton Crossing and sidings. Most crossing and bridges use the ATLS assets

There is a working airport too!

And here is the approach Behind Cranleigh Town

More to come....

Thanks to Photobucket for the hosting.

Next 6

This is a double-line route but has single line short branches. It will also be necessary to double-head on goods, there are some steep inclines

Two Class 47s hammering up the incline towards Deep Lakes station

Now over the worst they are approaching the station, small loco facility and goods yard on the right

A close shot of our 47s traversing the Cranleigh level crossing. This one is not ATLS controlled due to the goods line converging close to it which caused problems placing triggers. Instead there is a speed limit of 55 a bit further out

The cattle yard within the Cranleigh yard complex

Rounding a curve and approaching Deep Lakes from the other direction

Cockleshell Bay lift bridge is seen in the distance, already down as it uses the ATLS assets.

I will be away for a few days but will organise some beta testing for this route. A couple of folk would be great. File size is 2.2Mb. This will attach to an email. PM me with your mail address please.

Again thanks to Photobucket for hosting my images.

Keep up the Great Work,

The trouble with detail....

Hello Sampug,
Detail is fine, but the downside is the frame rates go out the window! So it is normally necessary to cut viewing distances and add full day fog with my routes.
But on the other hand detail does make a route more natural looking, so you're between a rock and a hard place when deciding what to do.
I usually overdo it, I admit that, but peeps can always take assets out or cut down as above if their PC is on the low spec side but those with powerful machines have the detail there, ready and waiting. So I go for it...

Bless you,

Angela

 

[angelah]

Done

Great shots, there Angelah! Looking forward to seeing more of this in the future.:wave:

The route is finished. I was thinking of getting a couple of people to beta it for me, but on the other hand it seems to run okay.

I will send it up soon.

Blessings,

Angela

Dear all,

Paging AngelaH

Hi AngelaH,
I have recently downloaded your "West Country Days" - truly magnificent, love the old English setting and the scenery is stunning, thanks. I have a query- I am missing 2 x unknown items for this route, kuid 147131:251089 and kuid 32105:38910. These are not on the DLS - where do I find these please?
Cheers, Fender

 

[scottling]

Fender849: try Googling the kuids, you may find results.

Nicolaas1: Remove your e-mail address, unless you don't believe in stalkers!

Not available

Great route Angelah but as nicolaas1 posted i'm also missing 4 kuids which are

You can locate 31891:28001 on the DS but it's noted as Not Available. I shall remove the asset from my drive.
It is a small pump house so won't upset the running of the route.

Thanks very much but as it happens that's what i've just done & found robertoconti's trees. Found out that the other one 31891:28001 - Pump House by Daemondex isn't available on the DLS anymore. I'll have to use either the Auran Oil Refinery Pump House Small or Smaller version.
