Yuk

[cvkiwi]

Hi all I'm having some trouble, You see I have spent a lot of time using Sirgibbys murchison and there seems to be a feel about it.
And that seems to be a old New Zealand feel.

But when ever I try to make a route I try for that NZ feel and all I get is yuk.
What am I doing wrong??? This is driving me nuts
Please help Thanks all

Where do you live, North or South island. Mike lives on South island and may see things differently to you. Whatever the reason, keep working on it, it will click one day.

G'day cvkiwi! :wave:

I know how you feel. Whenever I try to create NZ themed routes all I get is yuk too! :hehe:

But when I think NZ, I think: Thick bush, tall trees, mountains towering overhead with snow ontop, deep river gorges, tall bridges, scrubby plains, sheep grazing, Deep valleys that sort of thing. Thats what helps me build routes.

Hope this gives you an idea!

Cheers!

Jake.

I've never been to New Zealand, but I figure it with nice beaches, fish and chip shops right next to the beach, nice green, lush land, with people who make bucket's and rope's

You should take a drive over there some day to find out. Remember to book a flight back though as the bridge is only one-way!

@ CVKiwi, I actually made a start on the Wellington - Hutt line many moons ago but gave up, as I always seem to, after one board worth of rail and SH1.

That's not correct, the bridge is one way from Oz to the centre and then changes to one way from NZ. The bridge was a shared enterprise with each country doing half but they skimped and didn't make it wide enough for anything wider than one car. Then they found that vehicles could not carry enough fuel to do the distance. Quite a muck-up, pity it seemd a good idea at the time.

You can see it from the plane, like a piece of string all the way across.

Ha Ha. They just beat us in the 7's. I've destroyed the bridge.
