An NG train exits the forest on it's way to Splatter.

Agree with that (yours also) :).

Thank you Andy (and Therichman), I feel flattered by your kind words.
Well, I never thought about it, because I myself do not think my pictures are especially remarkable, and have never believed that they are sufficiently interesting that they deserve their own thread.

Even dirty trains can be quite colorful anyway, hehe.

Erik again lovely shots. You have some great reskinns. Have you been able to contact NS37 to see if you can release your reskin of the tracks? They are beautiful and compliment your trains very well. Keep up the amazing work!
 
Looking good deadpool. What is the name of that blue deck truss you are using?


One small criticism though. You may want to adjust the location of the left hand bridge pier in the last shot so that it lines up with the spot between the two trusses since without the support there, the bridge would collapse under its own weight. Though judging by the PL&E location, you may have to adjust the bridge track itself with spline points to make it work. Bridges are such a pain some times.


It is nice to see some PL&E action for once. I can't wait to see more.
 
Thanks jade and mike, here is the actual location, I think the truss is called USO or something. ill try to fix what i can. i tried to make the road higher and closer to the bridge, but the dem says other wise

Thank you.
Sorry, but I have not spoke to JR about the tracks yet.

Well, I thought you guys would yell straight out when you saw the awful color on the "Pink Panther", hehe.
But this is how it should look ,now that it is almost finished (it's fun to play around a bit sometimes, and make your own fantasy skins, LOL)

@ Erik - beautiful again!

@ deadpool - the Russian Bridge Kit (DLS) includes a support pillar pretty much the same shape as your proto bridge. A trick I use to get support pillar height to match a bridge height is to put the pillars on a length of invisible track, then fix the invis track at a height that puts the pillars at the correct height relative to the bridge....

Good tip & advice, thanks for sharing you knowledge.

Pink is usually my least favorite color, but that Pink Valley loco is just fantastic !

Your routes are absolutely fantastic, but as Google Earth doesn't lie, the track must be lowered as the bridge to water distance is not quite that high.
