Umm, I like the Belt! That route provides a better background than UMR2020, I've been messing around on the Montana Rail Link recently.

Utah Belt at their Helena, MT Yard.
Lots of locomotives for UB; on the DLS, Freeware, and Payware

A fair amount of rolling stock too. (no duplicates in this consist)

"Pictured here is 666 derailed and teetering dangerously over Wallahaboo Creek. The locomotive, operated by engineer John Claymore and fireman Ross Henke, was traveling down the Wallahaboo line in Creek Ridge, WI. The line was undergoing maintenance after a flash flood came through last week. According to Claymore, "everything was allright until we came to the creek. We'd been doing a steady 25 miles an hour when all of a sudden, the bridge was gone." Claymore applied the emergency brakes, but the engine slid on the rails, derailed off the broken bridge, and stands where it is pictured now. No one was injured, but the broken bridge will put the line out of use for some time, and recovering the mammoth locomotive and her tender will require some effort."
 
This is why we don't put objects on railroad tracks.

Later that evening, during recovery.

And then a pretty bad ending. Story goes that there was hazardous material in the box cars, and static electricity set whatever was inside off. What it is is up to you.

Pretty good edit for only using Windows Paint :hehe:
 
Here is a NASCAR Truck going on at Martinsville speedway while an NS mixed goes by, something different, and the route is kind of rough but still

As a diehard NASCAR fan, this looks like an accurate representation of a typical Martinsville race.
 
Two SD38s, a U25C, and a U25B lug a string of empty hoppers south. It's 1970, the last year Penn Central will hold trackage rights on this line. While Silver Lines is in the midst of a motive power struggle, Penn Central units tend to help out from time to time to alleviate pressure. By 1972, power will finally begin to stabilize, and PC units will have all but disappeared from the mountains.

Here, our train snakes through the S-curve at Chloe.

Some forty five miles south, 6926 crests the Independence Summit, the most challenging grade between Gauley Bridge and Grantsville. Of course, there is the downhill to go, which is as steep as 3.5%, so... There's still quite a journey ahead of our train.
