Figure I would chime in with a few screenshots. These screen shots are shots I replicated in the sim that I took in real life in late September of 2013.

By the Rhinelander Paper Mill on the main paper mill lead track. I still have to add some trees and scenery in the background.

Rhinelander Paper Mill tracks on north side of Phillips Street. I still have to add some trees and scenery in the background.

Train heads back to the main from the paper mill as it crosses over where the Wisconsin River and Boom Lake meet.

Train 11 for Gladstone is seen here at Pembine where it will pick up some log cars off the ELS


Here we see train 11 coming into Pembine and soon pull into the siding and cut away from its train and run light back into town to pick up some loaded log cars that are spotted at the mill on the ELS tracks


Pulling into the siding here at Pembine


Now cut away from its train, the power will run light back into town as its about to cross old HWY 141


Now on the connector track the power pulls around past the Pembine Depot


Now shoving the loads back down the ELS main and soon back onto the connector track to couple back onto train 11's cars


Rounding the bend of the connector track


With the train back together, train 11 blasts off and heads east for Gladstone

New photos uploaded. I am currently working on Bradley to Tomahawk. Still a lot of work to do, but the good news is Lake Mohawksin will take up a HUGE portion of the Tomahawk area which eliminates time needed to place buildings and such. So far, I have all the track laid into Tomahawk including the yard and have placed the Tomahawk Railway track just up to the mill, but still need to lay the tracks for the mill and then I am finished with track laying. Next it will be onto textures, scenery, and buildings. Bradley to Rhinelander is pretty much done. Here are 19 new photos of the Tomahawk project...

CN L551 makes its way north out of Peshtigo as it just crosses over the Peshtigo River and crossing E Front St

I will add a couple of these in the next post so they are shown in the thread.

This would be where West Somo Avenue ends once they cross the tracks and is the beginning of private property for the warehouse. To the right is a dog park.

North Avenue in Tomahawk where the tracks parallel the road for a block or two.

The end of the propane spur dead ends in the background just past West Somo Avenue. The track used to reconnect to the north end of what used to be the Milwaukee Road. CN has since ripped up those tracks. To the right is just empty space of grass, weeds and dirt now.

 

[MDG84]

This is the end of the spur for the propane/gas dealer for Hilgey's. The spur still crosses the tracks, but I have not seen any propane tankers sit on the north side of the crossing in some time.

The Milwaukee Road road bed in the foreground and propane dealer in the background. Between the two is just a bunch of dirt, grass, and weeds.

Nicely done :Y:

More work continues as a ballast train heads for Oconto as they are dumping new ballast on a project between Oconto and Peshtigo...This train will pull into the siding in Oconto and leave its cars there till they are ready for the ballast

Put in some ATLS NRC signals at the crossing in Bradley.
