Now that is an insane, yet strangely awesome, lashup!
...just how heavy is that beast? :hehe:

Despite the plain background, it's still a great shot!

Nice trestle shot, Bob! Just by coincidence, I'm working on a trestle at the mo. Keep 'em coming.

Good choice for a route, Nick. Lookin' forward to more.

Cheers,
Fred
 
A trio of new Millhaven RS1s slide their way through the town of Willow Creek. It is November of 1955 and dieselization has only started a few months ago, but already steam's days are numbered.

Nice shots! Where can i download those RS1s??

Acorrding to what I've heard, their TBD. I Commissioned this as CMRR #401, I see alex is having fun with the skins :p

Can't wait for it's release, Are those the ALCO Type B's on it or the Baldwin ones? They don't look to pleasing to the eye at the moment.
 
You are correct, it is the one that you commissioned. I have your skin almost done, just a few stripes on it. I am not sure if they are ALCo or Baldwin AARs, but if I remember correctly, Adam has done another bake on the frames, and is adjusting a few things.

It might be a bit long though, as I will be away from my computer for an unkown amount of time, as last night a tornado hit my fiance's house and did quite a bit of damage. Everyone is fine, and the tornado miraculously jumped the house, but it tore up almost every tree in the area, which is bad because it is a wooded area, and it wrecked the power lines. Oddly enough, though a tree fell on each of the cars that were there, none of them got so much as a scratch.

But yeah, going to be gone for at least the weekend.

I might see if I can go ahead and get those stripes put on and the skin finished, but I won't be around till Monday night either, anyway.
