the Double Disaster at Duffy street was a seperate incident. That appears to be where a freight jumped the track at Sullivan's Curve. Duffy street was at the bottom of the hill, down in San Bernadino itself. (though someone correct me if i'm wrong?
)It's a joke, Ed answered before Joe.

-Well looks like all questions have been answered lol, but yes the cross at the loop is there for the 2 SP workers killed in the Duffy St. incident in San Bernardino! (then 6 days later the gas line ruptured due to the cleanup crews at the wreck site!

ah...I see now...man, makes me quiver at the thought of that wreck. That was one of the first train wrecks i ever learned about. I knew enough to know what the weight of an average train was and i still shiver at the the thought of 8000 tons of trona barreling off the curve and into an unsuspecting neighborhood. ughgugh, i'm, shivering now.
may god rest their souls, and the last train to heaven wait for them.

I had just arrived into town by stagecoach and saw a large crowd gathered by a colorful coach on track two with a man, neatly dressed, giving a speech. And this is what I saw:
The President of the United States of America, running for reelection. The speech: Commending railroad workers for all their hard work serving this country. He must have planned this speech just for our city because every man in this town has a job with the railroad. Unless you exclude Bill who runs the Saloon, general store, and hotel.
This is a reskin of Colorado71's Strasburg coach, reskinned with permission. Soon to be found on his site.

This is a screenshot thread, with many (if not all) images larger than 800x600.
Great shots Dan (Leadfoot), those AWVR units look real sharp.
Keep it up with those units Alex.

I know thats why I pointed out the fact that they were over size - is it better to get a polite warning from another user or for a mod to come along and close the thread - since there is no warning in the tiltle of this thread it would be assumed that all images would be no large than 800 X 600
- Screen shots posted to the Trainz Community Discussion Forums should be in .jpg format and not exceed a maximum resolution of 800 pixels wide x 600 pixels high*. Any screen shots that exceed this limit will be modified to links or removed from the post altogether.

Theres 715 pages of "oversize" images. AFAIK, No one mod has said anything yet. So your CoC preaching is being wasted here, why not go hunt down all the oversize banner children and scold them instead.
This thread, along with a number of others, is a continuation of a thread from before the Great Crash, and was begun very shortly after this forum came back online. It was started, therefore, before the warning stipulation had been included in the greatly reverred CoC. Thus, there is no warning in the thread title. Since the first page, however, there have always been screenshots greater than 800 x 600 in this thread. Everyone knows that...except for a few rules lawyers apparently.
