Memory Lane with Coal Country RTe
Good Saturday Afternoon,
Was busy watching some good movies last night and working like Crazy with Port area do over I working on, straightening out Roads, and Buildings, redoing over half the trackage, you know the usual stuff.
So late last night, was going thru my Route Pictures, and came into Coal Country, thought it was time to peek in and show some more of my shots of this fantastic Route.........I highly recommend it if like the Country Scene and Running Coal, Lumber whatever pleases you. This route is so cool, not to big and so well done, absolutely a 10 on my scale of Routes just to sit back and relax in the Country with some terrific scenery.
Route Description as follows!
"Explore 8 twisting miles of a fictional route based around the coal-rich states of WV, KY etc. Created by R.Ness (Scratchy). Thankyou to all the content creators who make this route and Trainz what it is!
Created in T:ANE SP1, with the support of JointedRail.com, we hope you enjoy!"
It's early morning here, and we are getting ready to board old reliable here and get some much needed loads out and shunted to where they need be. The boys are ready to put in some hard work today, as in any day.
She's all fueled and Sanded, ready to move down and pick up our loads. Dispatcher has given us the Work Orders for today.
Passing part of Weed Abatement Train, we stopped here to spot some loads etc.
Just look how great the Texture and Foliage look here........Not to much, just what you'd expect to see here, and it works great in T:ANE...
If I recall correctly we have a long Country Spur to back into and drop off some of our Loads. Small loading Coal Stipple over here on the Right. And this power we are using, Weathering is top notch..........The only bath they ever get is when it Rains, and does rain a lot in this part of the Country. LOL
Pulling out some empty Gons for Metal or other Commodities load. Oops, correction, Dispatcher just told us we need to Grab some Coal Loads and get it divered to one of our Customers. Timing is all.
I have never seen a sign like this, but sure good to know it's here when your shunting in Tall weeds. Animation works great when you load the Gons..........
Back up slow and take it easy, have my Brakeman watching out for me as we load it up.
Never seen a sign like this before, but good to know.......
Our local Passenger Trains passes thru as we hold on the siding till it clears.......
That'll do for today, and a shout out for Texas, I hope the Storm does not Stall, they're getting enough Rain as it is with this huge Hurricane.
Take care all, see you in a few days.
