Timberline Narrow Guage Project Started

Hello all,
I have Just started a narrow guage line that is focused on Southwestern MT. The Line was nicknamed "The Turkey Track" but was actually called "The Timber Line RR." or as well "The Timber Line Creek RR." (Hense it followed Timber Line Creek) The line ran from Chestnut to Cokedale including 2 connections with The Northern Pacific RR over Bozeman Pass. The line went through many towns including: Cokedale, Storrs, Maxey, Timberline, and Chestnut preferably 20mi:udrool::mop: :mop: (Not a one engine line anymore). I include all of the towns + connections with the NP, Plus 1 more in the bear canyon. The line was created for bringing coal out of the many mines as well as gold:p :cool: (I live right next to the original Main line, I am lucky) My Pics Of It (only One)

Good Luck with the route I'm always looking for good narrow gauge routes espically little known ones like you are describing.

I assume it's going top be 3ft gauge by the looks of the pictureand your signature.

hello all,
Thank you for the complements:wave: .The route is on its way to Timberline:cool:, which provided much of the (High Grade) coal used by the NP and aswell Coke for the area. But Timberline is going to be the big part because the line splits several times splits at Timberline.
Also how i veiw my layout in MAP veiw is either in
:In driver by hiting the M key
:In surveyor by going to the "Surveyor Menu" button and selecting "Mini Map".
Shortline2:
Hello shortline 2 it is an honor to be complemented by a master in trainz mining layouts, Thank You.
Also the layout is 30in guage useing two different versions of track.
 
Ive decided to postpone the project so i can get mor information although i already have lots of information it needs to be compiled but no worries it will be worked on once and awile. its reached timber line but dosent have all of the tracks.
