So what's next? I'm keeping the subject of this one a bit of a mystery for a while, just for the fun of it! In fact first person to correctly identify the route and two locations will collect a small Jointed Rail voucher with my compliments...
The route will be TS2010 and will be Native Mode if I can come to terms with the tree thing - and I'm honestly not all that convinced by some of the hi-res textures I've downloaded either. Anyway for the moment it's Native...
Every new route has to start somewhere, so why not at a bridge? The question of course is 'Which bridge, and over what river?' It's a big bridge, that 100 car CSX coal train is entirely on the structure (including the DPU pushers on the rear). A CSX train is exactly what should be on this bridge. Manoeuvring those 23 individual truss bridge spans into place was a bitch. I should've started someplace else or used a spline
First worthwhile screenshot from the new route and my first try at using trees that wave as I pass! Jankvis and Pofig are responsible for these and I have to say 3D trees have come a long way in a short time! Anyway a couple of clues about the route: The CSX is southbound and it is just about to cross a state line. Apalachicola Northern locos never worked this spur, but it was worked by a regional...
