Nice screens but I have one problem with them (and with Amtrak). All Amtrak trains that I know of only travel at night. I checked into getting a ticket from Virginia to Denver. Found that I travel all night from Washington DC to Chicago. Sit around the station all day. Board the train again in the late afternoon and travel all night to Denver. You can not see any of the country like that. I will just keep driving my car. I also wonder what it is with Amtrak and snow. I have noticed that with the slightest bit of snow, Amtrak cancels all service. Do trains not like snow?

I a few years back I saw the Amtrak train heading it's way to Denver CO in the early in the day if the train had another stop I could gotten to see at the Denver Station. Snow where I live we got a lot of it this year I know that they did stop the trains not because of snow but of the cold. I hope this will help you.
 
Great shots everyone! George...it's good to have you back. I'm gonna have to get me one of those Conrail switchers.

Forgive me for being self-indulgent and reposting this pick. I kinda like it...:)

Nice shots everyone.

Just got done playing with the Harbor Master route included in 2010 by philskene. I must say I am very happy with 2010 EE, I have not had this much fun on my computer in a long time. I use DCC mode, I find it is more fun; almost as fun as operating the real thing.

The loco is something I have been toying with in Photoshop for a few days, I am happy with how it turned out. It is based on the JR Conrail GP38-2, so the details are not spot on correct with the shape file yet.

That's right, she be the ICG F3's.
Former GM&O unit, she is on the point of a Joliet to St. Louis thru freight.
The last pic is where she passes her home, the Gulf, Mobile and Ohio's Bloomington Shops.
Huge, huge thank you to Chris (n8phu) for these awesome units!
Tell us what you think!


Cheers,
