T:ANE (in development) screenshots...

Well time to post this picture again. This time in 80247. This shot has crashed T:ANE and my computer in earlier versions of T:ANE but it looks like it might be viable in 80276.

By this 1987 summer, most of Long Island has made PW Team Yard their own personal landfill. Here, the RF-65's lone E15 for the week idles the hours away as the last glimmers of daylight begin to disappear.

The Grayhounds



There are seven Union Pacific Two Tone Gray (TTG) locomotives in trainz that I know of, five by ANL and the remaining two by rudolf3610, one of which is a Challenger.

It is interesting that five are TTG with Armor Yellow stripping and only two are TTG with Silver stripping. In April of 1946 UP decided to repaint all their passenger locomotives TTG with silver stripes to match the TTG Pullman cars. Nine months later some marketing genius thought if would be a good ides to change the stripe to yellow to match and advertise the Brown and Armor Yellow Streamliners. All the locomotives were repainted, and remained yellow striped until 1949 when they were repainted back to silver stripes. Only ten Challengers were painted TTG, all 45 FEFs were TTG, as were 60 4-8-2 Mountains, and 14 Class P heavy Pacifics. Beginning in 1952 the entire fleet was repainted to black with a silver smoke box. Sadly no UP Mountains and Pacifics TTG are in trainz yet.

Oh good it is not just me, odd that the attachments seem to move both up and down.

The Huge Boy, fortunately both Cheyenne and Laramie have wyes so you can get her turned around.









Surprisingly I am able to run the locomotives around in Cheyenne with reasonable FPS.

Two shots from today's work in Farmingdale; the RF-63 has gotten the Clear to proceed westbound on Mainline 1 after leaving Pinelawn Team at PW 1 Interlocking. Power today consists of two freight pool MP15ACs, Nos. 159 & 150, whose engineer has just put the hammer down to get up to the MAS of 45. The electrification of the Mainline is well underway, and the third rail is laid down here but still will not be activated for a few more months. We are standing at Republic station, built to accommodate workers in the hangars of nearby Republic Airport, which is in its final weeks of sleepy operation as buildings once bustling with activity stand dormant. Once the third rail goes live, this station will be closed.

A few weeks later, an RF-64 crew reaches the end of their day as they sit at the bottleneck in Republic, about to duck onto 50ft of single track before hopping back onto PW siding, sort their cars for the team yard or for points east, and call it a day. Train 4011, which was running late tonight, hits the switch hard with a P-unit MP15AC leading the way and a pair of GP38-2s on the other end. In what will be a stop signal violation in the future, the crew here sits underneath the signal bridge that will eventually guard what will soon become Farm 2 Interlocking.
