Thanks for the kind words, Rob. Super computer? No, but it does the job.

That looks pretty nice MF01 although I'm not too sure they would have German displayed here. I like it nonetheless.

Canadian Pacific 4-4-0 "American" 144
Canadian Pacific A2q 144 is a 4-4-0 "American" home-built for the Canadian Pacific Railway in 1886 that served an outstanding 76 years from the early days of the first rail routes across Canada to the very end of steam in 1959. Originally numbered 351, she was renumbered 144 in 1912. CP 144 is a fine example of one of the many locomotives built to conquer the treachery of the Canadian west in the late 19th century.

Kingstonflyer, that is indeed a very nice shot. I like how the ditch looks along the track.
A nice shot from you, shebashetan7, and thank you for the history lesson.
Another shot at Watrous.

Thanks, Jack. It's always nice to have a break from the modern 21st century GE diesel electrics and return to the good old steam days. This is supposed to be a general Canadian railroading thread, after all. Those old 4-4-0's are really the best. Do you sometimes get bored of the modern age and instead run old-fashioned steam trains?

Wow! All you guys have such great screenshots. Nice work!
Jack, I found this tractor place on Google Earth and you've got it right on the money. Looks like this guy also collects old grain bins.

Shebashetan7, I like running steam trains from time to time alright. They're definitely more challenging in cab mode.
One year when water levels were higher quite a few of those tractors were sitting in water. Seems that they are just sitting there rusting away. I noticed there was an old jeep back there too and was wondering what shape it was in. I could use a new body for mine.

Right now I'm expanding my CP 144 model to include CP/South Simcoe 136 and CP 29. I will post a screen when they're all done.
