Yeah haven't been able to find any steamers that are appropraite , any suggestions ?The map is available at https://www.trainz.de/download/file/1015-preßnitztalbahn-tanesp4/ . All dependencies should be built-in or on the DLS. Finding locomotives and rolling stock for the map is a problem.
The pictures are from TRS19.

My next project, a wip - heading to the Old West....will be a narrow gauge railroad (36 inch) with some 18 inch mine car tracks in a smaller model railroad format.... heres some very early screenshots..

Dangravel that looks like tough country to build a railroad through lucky its NG Great work
Tom
Its tough country to model as well , all those side canyons and towering cliffs. It seems to take forever to do just one side canyon as vegetation doesnt sit will on the uneven ground and nearly all of it has to be sunk under the ground a bit or it looks like its floating -as you can see on the left in that last image. !
Wait till you see Baxter pass with the 7.5% grades, uts almost impossible to believe they ran a route up that pass as the rock is unstable and the curves are ridiculously tight. The actual grades in the canyon here near Atchee are not that steep, and the bulk of the traffic was down grade, empty glisonite flatcars and watercars went up the pass from Mack , the only substantial load upgrade was coal from Carbonera and stores and railway equipment from Denver transhipped at Mack. Coming downgrade, sheep, cattle ,timber ,gilsonite ,wool and water were the main items , alth the other side of the pass also had 5% grades. the plan was to build a tunnel under Baxter pass to eliminate the bottleneck and then standard gauge the entire line ,they even replaced any old ties with standard gauge items in the late part of the decade before the war, but a recession in the early 1920s scotched that idea and then with the depression and with local gilsonite stocks this side of the white river declining they closed it down in 1939. I might work a bit more on Baxter pass next week and try those escarpment splines on the cliffs as i wasn't very happy with what i achieved before using lower cliff splines.
