Trainz Plus - enjoy Trainz from just 20 cents a da
It is with a very sad heart that I make this post as one of the "originals" of the Trainz community has sadly passed away a few days ago.
I received this message from Chuck's wife:
On behalf of the Trainz Team, I would like to say thanks to Chuck for his enthusiasm and passion for Trainz over the many years. As original creator of the Highland Valley route, he helped bring joy to many lives. He will be greatly missed.
We will be dedicating TRS19 to Ceebee as a fitting tribute to everything he brought to the hobby.
As Ginny so eloquently put it, He will live forever in the Highland Valley RR.

I received this message from Chuck's wife:
Hi Tony, I know Chuck (CeeBee) would want me to let you know of his passing. He died Dec. 12, 2018 after a long struggle with a genetic liver-lung situation, Alpha-1 Anti-trypsin Deficiency. We were hoping for a liver transplant for him. Just didn't work for him, as his body couldn't stay in good enough shape to actually have that happen fast enough. He was so interested in getting back to his passion with Trainz, and was daily working on his new project layout, until his last trip to the ER. Please let the rest of the Trainz guys know, (and anyone who might remember him) of his death. He will live forever in the Highland Valley RR. He had plans for another layout, but couldn't get very far on it.
Good luck in all your endeavors.
