Not much of an outfield on that park there, and how am I supposed to hit a home run if there is no fence? XD That shot looks great, keep it up!
Thanks for the kind words. I have been wanting to do a B&O coal route for a while now and I am finally starting it. This is the small town that will be surrounded with some farm fields and some hill-like mountain-like areas that will serve as my line. As far as grade and stuff I have yet to figure out what is going to go down with the route but the coal loading facility came from this.

Except I made mine a little bigger.
I still want to add about 10 miles or so before I get to the interchange which will be for the B&O mainline.
Something like this

I want to have a single track crossover going to a wye that has a locomotive complex, and a few other nice things surrounded by a decent sized town based in 1951. I am in need of buildings before I get to that point, that and about 10 miles of track as I said before.
From the interchange I am in a debate on weather or not I want to do another extension going up some more (maybe 3 miles), and then unload at a small location like below.
Or if I want to include that in the town which I may just do. The whole route is going to be just a small branchline off the B&O that can only serve like, one car at a time due to the size of the loader. I honestly do not know how far I will go with this project but I hope to get a bit of it done. The thing that kills me every time is the texturing, but I have a few people that like the look of it so I am going to keep work on it for a while.

Sorry to quote a picture, but what is that track you're using in the foreground?The idea is to hit the Royal Crown Cola sign, meh, might as well replace it with a Moxie sign. Lol great stuff MontanaWestern and Tyalor!!

Looking great everyone!
If you mean like a rusty/older version I would be interested for sure.
I like simulators older version better. His new versions look to "shinny" to me. I know they're in early developement so maybe he'll fix it. I would also sink the ties into the ballast alittle more. Other than that they look great.

Has anyone seen my lower jaw? It dropped so hard I cant find it. Great work everyone!
The new version is less poly and more detail, runs better and is more prototypical.

Nice work Taylor, seriously great! I just would like to recommend putting some trucks in and maybe a few billboards.
