It seems host then post is down/gone? I lost all of my uploaded screenies. Anyway, this is my 3rd WIP route. It seems I like to bite off more than I can chew but I've always wanted to do a hilly type route. I used to vacation here (Madison) as a child and thought the area was beautiful. There isn't much railroad going on in real life aside from the incline cut https://www.nps.gov/nr/travel/madison/madison_railroad_incline_cut.html which has a grade of 5.89%. I decided the town needed a mainline so I added an ex N&W current NS line right through town. I wasn't satisfied and decided to add another north/south line with territory taken from southern Kentucky. This route is the result of a few shifted and merged DEM's and includes challenging grades and winding paths along the Ohio river. Here are some shots of the focal center of the route, downtown Madison.
