Due to an actual search through the archives, a new picture will be added farther down in the thread.

My personal route has just about every type of scenery you can think of....

A rare rainstorm the other night has turned the desert a little greener and brighter as an ATSF hot shot blasts by. ATSF/BNSF seems to be popular this week so far, doesn't it?


By the way, I'm using the built-in to 2009 texture "Ballast new" with the JR Light Grey track. Looks pretty good to me, seems to match well?

I've probably posted this somewhere before but it's the best I can do...

 

[ulmer94]

Yup. Don't see a problem with it, though

I lived in Arizona for 11 years. I have many memories of the Santa Fe line in the high desert plateau of northern Arizona and into New Mexico.

 

[SantaFebuff]

What an excellent route! Is that a personal creation? I love the colors and textures.

Cheers,

Nice shots everyone!

A fellar can work up a powerful thirst out here with the rattlesnakes and coyotes...

Fred, you’re making me feel parched and there’s a serious lack of beer in these arid parts. Time to head back to civilisation before nightfall!

Guess who just got a FCT!
