Dangavel,
Really impressive work here! The feel is very authentic. The screen shots are very nicely composed.

I edited the original Timber Ridge Line as well, except it was version three. It's now available on the DLS.
just some quick progress shots, a lot of it doesn't look much like the old timber ridge, so be it !
remodeled redtop !
I never liked the bridge to nowhere and it seemed unnatural for the town to be raised ( although really the reason i lowered it was I couldn't be bothered to add the cliffYour Redtop and my Redtop don't have too many similarities.
Although I'm definitely going to plagiarize your second street with the cabins along it and reduce the number and size of the buildings more. (trees in background are one of many experiments)
@dangavel
I hope you put this on the DLS as I'd like to download this to my edition of TRS19. I already like the original version of Timber Ridge Line, and I'd like to have the version you're making.
Your version "Timber Ridge Railroad" does not include the 30" gauge route through Redtop nor the 36" gauge section up through Tollume Pass. It is in fact based on Klinger's original Timber Ridge Line, however, after losing an update to corruption Klinger rebuilt the entire route as <kuid2:119493:1206:3> Timber Ridge Line which is available on the DLS (build 2.6). Klinger refers to this route as TRLv4. This is the version that Dan is working on and the version I've modified and shown many screenshots of.
BTW Dan I fully agree with the removal/replacement of buildings higher than three stories except in Prowler, I did the same. I also agree that the towns need outlying structures, cabins, boarding houses, livery stables, and etc.
Good news jvc is going to upload his rocky mountain set on the Dls soon , bad news I am going to have to cut down my computer use as I’m very stressed at the moment and need to lower my blood pressure, so progress will be a lot slower on getting this completed.
Dangavel and Normhart,
I really love everything y'all are doing with this route. It looks fantastic in all the screenshots that both of you are posting.
I'm sorry to hear of Dan's rising blood pressure though. I've found that just running AI trains and sightseeing on various routes has a very calming effect on me, but then again, I'm not creating and planning in surveyor much. I've found that playing around in Surveyor does tend to be a bit stressful, so Dan, please, take it a bit easier. Artists tend to be much harder on themselves when it comes to "getting things just right." I can easily say that I'd be thrilled with what you've already come up with, because I know I don't have the skill sets to make it all look so cool. And it already does. The screenies show a very convincing route. If you can swing those JVC trees, then that is going to be icing on the cake, so to speak.
I'm getting the biggest kick out of just viewing your progress Dan, on this and your Unitah route. Believe me, you are "getting things just right" with all your efforts.
Norm has something there about watching the grass grow, but I've also found that watching paint dry can be just as theraputic, and you get the added benefit of the paint smell.
Take it easy Dan, and get well.
