Thank you Forester!
Yes you are correct, a new route that's being made, which will be appox. a year or 2 before its released since I've gone down the mega route path for a change (the tracks and terrain are all based from a shortline that I'm not to far from), which I probably crazy with, but oh well, I'm sure it'll turn out prety well when its done.
Once I get the scenery done where I ended, I can show the small little village that's behind the camera, which might be tomorrow or the following day, along with more open fields
Cheers

One last hit from me. This time I purchased a few of K&L's CNR locomotives - very impressive! I'm starting to really like the Canadian rolling stock offered for Trainz! K&L is suppoed to be releasing a U1F 4-8-2 soon, that's definitely gonna be a purchase from me!

Thank you Casey, appreciate your kind words
It is a perfect screenshot, almost like the real thing

I've redone the scenery in that area where the screenshots in post #4764 and just asking for some thoughts if I should apply the new scenery below, or keep it as the scenery above.

Sad day on the Cattaraugus......the dock switcher is unloading the Lake Erie rail ferry and pulled what looks to be a Brill car off the barge.....that can only mean one thing; lots of speculation and guessing! Word at the roundhouse is that the D10-hauled commuter from Wanakah Jct will be replaced by an RDC service.
More sad news as 1293, once the pride of the G5 class on the CCLE, has just been shopped and is now wearing a new coat of paint on her tender, signifying her demotion from Class 1 passenger service down to Second Class Freight and Commuter service

After taking another look, I now think the new scery update is pretty good as well. I have updated all of the completed parts along the tracks with new scenery, so when I get closer to release (which isn't anytime soon) I'll share some of those areas. Thanks for your thoughts nevertheless.

Nice looking screenshots HoggerDrew, the story might be sad, but your screenshots are beautiful.
Casey, great screenshot!
-----------------------------
And now, more CN action on the new section of my RIP route:
And that is all.

Don't believe everything you hear in the roundhouse on the CCLE......apparently, traffic on the line has increased so much that Management has decided to double-track the main line for it's entirety, and that the Doodlebugs are being brought in to act as workman shuttles up and down the line. This was confirmed by 7312 pulling the hook off the barge with 9 flatcars loaded with new rail today. Expect to see more ballast trains up and down the line

Just a couple aerial photos of Wanakah's dockyards and the Stelco plant at the East end.....the plant keeps Stelco #1000, ex CP M4a #3445 busy switching slag cars and shipments of steel coils and new rails.

Thanks Hiawatha, I'm trying to get into more industrial/short train sort of work. Your last set reminds me of the GP9rm's that work in pairs in my hometown switching the local plants.
Where abouts are you setting your route? Canada or Northern US?

No problems; keep up the good screenshots
And thank for the kind comments. For now, the route is based in Northern USA (Midwest themed), but the more I keep thinking of it, it would also make a nice Canadian route. I do know it won't be hard to convert it to Canada, just need to reskin the crossbucks using the Trainz alias system and build replace the speed signs and boom - done

Some CN action this afternoon, and it looks like we run into a train meet.
Another freight train has to wait for the other freight to pass before it can enter onto the single track stretch.
Cheers
