It's mid July 1997 and we find LSRC 8520 heading south through La Salle Illinois on train M310 bound for the Granville interchange with BNSF Railway.

Closer to Granville now, we catch the train screaming across the rolling country side, just 3 miles from the interchange and a much needed crew rest. today, 8520 is still sporting the railroads original "Dark Days" paint scheme while sister engine, 5601 has been freshly repainted not 2 weeks ago. All 4 locomotives on todays M310 were bought directly from Southern Pacific just before the UP take over, with the GP40-2, 7100, still sporting her SP paint scheme. Both 8520 and 7100 still sport their SP road numbers.

Hello, one and all. I'm Jessica K, some of you probably know that I got this account from a friend several years back. I've just been slow to post, mostly due to me playing a whole bunch of other games. But, not too long ago, I got Trainz 19, and have been adding some stuff in for some fun. I made the jump from TANE to 19, since 19 was on sale. Anyway, here's one of my first screenshots in 19.

About the image.
This is from a personal session I made for myself called Ballast In, Ties Out on the Franklin Avenue Industrial route. Personally, I set it as a fictional Conrail Shared Assets Operations secondary in northern New Jersey, so I use NS and CSX Geeps for power as they shuffle transfer traffic off both CSX and NS.

So, over the Steam Winter Sale, I got some stuff for 19 that I didn't have in TANE. Midwestern Branch is one of them, along with the Amtrak F40PHs. This is from another personal session of mine called BN Local. In my lore of the route, the branch to Mill Town was operated by the Great Northern, Burlington Northern, BNSF, and later MWB Shortline, which later was sold to Watco, which soon meant power from WAMX roads like Wisconsin and Southern would be possible and BNSF would grant WSOR trackage rights to reach the isolated part of Watco. This session is meant to be early 90s before the FRA mandated the use of ditchlights.
I also took a clip of the meet pictured here and used a filter to make it look like a scene from the 90s.
If you wish to watch, enjoy. I also have some clips from various runs in Train Sim Classic on the channel too.
