A few shots of trains around Revelstoke.
Every time I go to Revelstoke, I grab a burger and a root beer and hang out in the park next to the Columbia River for just such an occasion as below.

Ken, what can I say? Beautiful shots as always!
Nice one, Casey. I like the motel sign.
Claude, great shots from you as well. The last time I was in Revelstoke my wife and I went to the railway museum. There was an old gentleman in the cab of engine 5468 who had long ago worked the CPR as an engineer. I could have talked with him for hours but there were others waiting behind me. The stories he could have told!
Cheers, Jack

Met the same engineer, Jack, three years ago. Yes he had a story for every occasion, railroad wise.

i know i lag behind with all those virtuose trainzers posting here regurlarly and I sit/work in the back of the train which happens to be the terrace of the train so the views are spectacular at times.
Normally you get fresh air on my mountainous routes but the steam excursion keeps the bugs away to say the positive note.
Hi Charlielima,Jack and all others well doen you guys keep this thread alive and well fed.
Here some of my quick and dirty impressions this morning and than back to Calgary working on my route there.

Thanks, Jack, Roy
Roy, nice work on Revelstoke. Seems to be the theme of the day. I am looking forward to the Spiral Tunnels, Banff and Canmore (spent a lot of time in Canmore) as well as the cement plant in Exshaw. Keep up the great work.

Exshaw and Lafarge look amazing, Roy!
Thank you for all your hard and meticulous work and artistry. It is greatly appreciated.
Jack, fantastic looking scenery in the Yukon. Does all that detailed tree activity hurt the frame rates?

Thanks for the kind words, Roy.
Claude, with draw distance set to 15,000, shadows on high and everything else on either high or ultra I saw 39fps to just over 100.
Here are a couple more shots, the first departing Fraser and the second arriving at Summit.

Nice ones, evilcrow. I lived up in Hull, Quebec for quite a while as a child growing up. I'll never forget the winters. Say, evilcrow, where does that Baldwin switcher in the first pic come from? JR freeware? If so, how do you get rid of the rotating beacon?
Many Thanks,
