Kinda reminds me of a vortex of a tornado as when them data probes go into the twister and get a reading and come back to the computer

Now there's something I've never thought of in Trainz, Bob! Great job!

Quite sure it is on Kicking Horse Pass.

After leaving Banff, it continues along the Bow River passing the majestic Rocky Mountains which rise up on both sides of the tracks. After passing through the resort town of Lake Louise, it starts the grueling climb up the grade to the Continental Divide and the top of Kicking Horse Pass. What comes next is a nerve-wracking ride down one of the steepest and most dangerous stretches of mainline railway track in the World. From the top of the Pass, the downward grade increases to as much as 2.4% as you move 14,000 ton unit trains through the famous Spiral Tunnels, past the imposing Cathedral Crags, and finally ending your run in the small town of Field, nestled in the spectacular Kicking Horse Canyon

Thanks Bob, But those are the trees that came with the route. However, I would like to possibly use these trees for a possible mountain pass route in the future.
