The Alabama & Southeastern RR WIP Thread (Large Screenies)

[Southern1581]

I have no idea. We keep in touch, I think he's been busy with another route seeing how the V5 is in my shops right now.

 

[Bluewater]

Lookin' good!

Now step back, drop the gun, and give me the **** plane.

And some skittles

 

[Southern1581]

You can have conrailfan's plane provided that you keep it far away from him. Skittles are in the glove console. He also keeps a hidden stash of them under the parachute gear.

Skittles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jumps the fence ............... Yes I would like to by your skittles

 

[Southern1581]

You'll have to talk to Bluewater about that, not my plane anymore!

were did those cool crossings come from.

 

[Southern1581]

I believe all of the crossings on the A&SE routes are the ones from saxrt. They are incredible.

 

[NSguy999]

Ok, got the pics, the main yard is loaded with crates, boxes, and trucks.

In other news, the housing market is still strong up here :hehe:

[bentrain14]

Where did you find the Buffers in the 7th picture?

 

[kittycraft]

I think those are from a pack from RRMods.

 

[Southern1581]

They're on the DLS. Lilb put them on there after he left RRmods.

 

[NSguy999]

An overpowered ASE local makes her way south

UP intermodal with a unique lash-up and please don't ask where I got UP 7400. I think everyone knows by now...

CO-OP grain facility (largest on the route)

Progress around the facility

NS coal headed South

 

[Southern1581]

Be looking for A&SE CF7's (with matching slugs!) in the next few weeks or so. Looking for some time so I can get started.

 

[Southern1581]

Both the CF7 and the slug are underway! The slug is further along, here's a progress pic of it:

 

[AMTRAKwannabe]

I don't get why the slug has a cab...

I don't get why the slug has a cab...

Must be a road slug , Norfolk Southern has built quite a few of them out of retired GP59s or a similar model, it escapes me now. CSX rosters quite a few as well.Roadslugs are basically a locomotive with no prime mover, typically fuel tanks are left and filled with concrete for additional weight, traction motors remain to. They equip them with a control stand so they can lead if required with the mother trailing. They are usually used extensively on locals.

 

[Southern1581]

Exactly! You'll find CF7 mother/slug sets running all around Autumnville and its industries, as well as the daily locals at Brierwood and Oak Grove.

Also, the NS road slugs are built from GP38's/GP38AC's/GP50's. The GP59's are going into the GP59E program.
