The DEM is done, Thanks to rr_jdm for all of his hard work putting this together section by section.

Sorry that the some baseboards were still white when I took this but since I worked today I had little time to wait for all the baseboards to load up.

Chickenjoe has just updated those assets for you but before I send them to to, I want to see if anyone else has this this problem but if you really need it I can send the update now if you like.

For those of you who are wondering about the North Shore Caboose and when that one will be release well we plan the release it once we can get in contact with Ben Neil of Subpar Productions (who we need to get permission to use his arch bar trucks) We plan on doing some Freight Car and MOW crane (all will be from Dave Snow's Crane) packs as well when we have time. Plus expect to get a free surprise coming soon from Jointed Rail that I commissioned from SimulatorTrain (Who I now have the great honer have him on board as the JR member of my team).

Ben (benjamin) is making great progress on our first piece of custom content for this route which is ATSF 4-8-4 2900 Class #2903 which he will be making it in two versions, the Class he is building right now and then the same class that #3751 is part as.

We will welcome all content creators to possibly host stuff on our site since our site will be be focused on North American Continent (USA, Canada, and Mexico) from the classic era of our railroads from the Steam Days all the way up to the beginning of Amtrak. We hope to be as successfully in our plans starting around next year once the new site is up.

Our route will be including Chicago's O'Hare International Airport which will be included in our route for the purpose of giving our fellow members to take off and land some planes on our route and right below to the south of the Airport is 4 big yards with tracks that connect in a somewhat circle piece so from there you have the option of going to Deklab, Elgin or all the way to the other end at Rockford IL and you can operate 2 Metra services as well as plenty of opportunities to run mainline freight trains (wether you prefer the days of the C&NW and IC) or present day UP and CN and too top it off, you can run heritage equipment on the two museums that are featured which are Illinois Railway Museum and Fox River Trolley Museum.

I would like to make a small announcement that Gerald aka 210009222 has agreed to join the team and become our our official engine reskiner so we welcome him to the team (We have a few engines for him to skin that are freeware so we can ask the original authors permission) For example he has done C&NW F unit #411 and its off of the Freeware F units from JR so I will contact JR and the original author for release confirmation if they agree, expect to see his stuff for our project to be hosted on our site and whatever else he has plans for that can be release.

The North Shore caboose is already on the DLS. But when we get permission to release Ben's bogeys (I had to mod them to make them fit) they will be hosted on the website.
 
Sorry guys for the lack of updates going on, been very busy lately with personal matters and it looks like we might not have the website ready for christmas, therefore we are expecting to release the coach pack by Media fire link until we can find time to get the website running. Hopefully after the holidays we can provide more updates on our progress. Again sorry folk for the lack of updates but personal matters must come first (especially since its close to christmas). :(

Also Ive been trying my best to test out the SP1 beta but once again, database repairs are preventing me from doing any testing at all in SP1 (I seem to be hitting a bit of a bad luck with these Database Repairs lately).

I got some good news everyone, Me and my team have come up with a name for our website. it will be called the "Trainz Heritage Group" and we are now in the process of finding a way to make a website, if you know any good create your own website places, please let me know. Also I finally got a successful database to work "For the first time in many months" and now SP1 Mac Beta for TANE is working but until the release candidate version is ready I won't be doing any route building progress until it comes out, "So I will be in beta tester role mode" for the next few weeks, to do my part to help spot any bugs I come across to help make the Mac version of SP1 TANE even better than the original one we got back in June. But in the meantime sometime after the holidays and after our coach mega pack release, the rest of the team will get back to work on their projects such as the 2903, our next coach mega pack, research (and more of it) and working with JR for for commissions, Whistle Horn sounds from K&L etc. So for now, I would like to say our team and supporters will like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

One last thing, my DEM creator added a last minute addition to our route and now you can run trains from Davis Junction down south to connect with the line the runs into Dekalb so now all 3 lines heading west can now interchange and connect with each other so you can now have 3 towns to terminate in heading westbound. Many thanks for that last minute addition. :)

MUs and Site

FWIW, just obtained the official diagrams for 1198 and 1380 (without, unfortunately, the truck configurations - photos will have to do). Looks like a fun project, maybe parallel with the NE-6 hack.

I use Altervista for hosting, worth considering for your project. I believe they have the usual tools available for site design, though I don't use them myself.
 
That's good I was going to send you the drawings but ive been a bit busy over this holiday with family and friends, but glad you got some drawings. If you need anything else please let me know. I also have other drawings of some of the other electric examples that IRM has if your interested?
 
Hello!

my name is Parker Craig and I was wondering if my friend and I could possible have a chance in joining this project.

Have a wonderful Day and Happy New Year!
 
The last minute addition has been added to the route and it's now complete and now I can finally work on track work, I will post a screenshot of the overall route later tonight since I am away from the Mac at a family party.
 
Hi Everyone. Im back from the party so here is a shot of the entire finished route (There will be no more extensions from this moment onwards)
