Looks pretty good to me, too. The only complaint I would make is that in the last picture, (with the gondolas) all those evergreens that only have foliage at the top look really rather odd standing relatively isolated like that. I thought that was something you only got in forests because the lower branches couldn't get enough light? Of course, I could easily be wrong, I'm certainly no expert ...
I'm sort of going off of this one image i have in a magazine. My guess is that it's a certain tree species but i'll have to look into it a bit more

Ya caught me. the true location of the route has been revealed.
anyways I installed the latest tane build just to see, and while it's very laggy and full of stutters (im getting about 20fps on zec's built in route - something must be wrong) It is looking a bit better.
Those locos look incredible in TANE.

That cloud formation is a sign of Ancient Aliens, on the Used To Be About History Channel!

meh..
Looks great man, keep up the epic work!
Thanks guys! So I finished part one of "major obstacles" for this route. Catenary junction splines are finally done, and wow i tore just about all of my hair out trying to make this easy to set up. Why cant tane have any form of actual catenary support? the world may n3ver know.
Thanks CG for this grid texture btw. I faded it a tad bit.

This entire project looks amazing.
By the way, I recently came across some pictures of the GF6C cabs. Thought they might be useful.

So since I had nothing else to really do today, I messed around with the latest TANE version. I have quite a few ideas..

That looks so nice, with the shadow of the mirror, and it reminds me of a humid morning, with the slight haze.

One of the most impressive routes I've seen created for Trainz, hands down!
Out of curiosity, is there a C40-8M planned?

I've been thinking of making one for quite a while. Just need a bit of resources and such. Although I believe these would not have run the tumbler sub until after the year 2000 or at all. Maybe just through tacheeda/anzac since it was necessary to pass this area on the way north to Mackenzie.

Is that a catenary that automatically goes on track? If it is than that will make building traction/interurbans easier.

Looks like it has occurred in the past. Photo taken at Tumbler Ridge, 2002. Credits to Bruce Schwierske.
Yeah you're right, however this was past 2000. I believe the main issue would have been clearances around the Quintette loadout which was left un-used after they initially shut down the line, or maybe it was a bit after. My memory is failing me a bit at the moment lol. I'm gonna have to look into it a bit more.
