Thanks Tom, they are up on the DLS today.

Nice shot Kylesy. Keep at it mate. As a matter of interest, I did a tour of the Port of Brisbane a few days ago; and I saw QR 2358 leading a coal consist of empty cars. I did a little research and found several news items about her. As well as several derailments over the years, 2358 took out a road train that was a bit slow on a crossing, and another time, the ABC cameras captured her when her brakes caught fire at the 'Port', and fire fighters took a number of hours trying to bring it under control. Some units just have continual bad luck. But there she was again,.. just hope the brakes got fixed.


Cheers,
Roy

Last night a new piece of rollingstock arrived in the Ghostryder Depot. Its a new hopper that theBigman and myself have been working on. Thebigman did all the building while myself supplied a large number of images and some plans that fell off the back of a train that made this project possible. This is an early beta of the hoppers, it will be a two pack hopper with only the front half being tested. Intentions are to do the old QHAH series hoppers. I would like to thank matt for the chance to be the first to show off these hoppers.

Test Train TT1970 is seen leaving Edgarville with 12 new hoppers behind 5011 5021.

Thanks Roy!

Up here in Townsville we get rare visits of other 2300s, the only service is the inlander which is rostered by 2301 currently. I have a 2170 in tow which has happened on a few 9T92 (loaded westbound acid) usually a lone 2800 hauls the 26 car rake all the way to phosphate hill.
Interesting story there too mate

Just checked in for first time in a couple of weeks. Lots of great screen shots, but this one of Roy's really caught my attention .

[thebigman]

Some nice work out there!

Roy, you are coming along quite nicely with your content creation, these items will certainly be useful to me!

Ranger_51. Your NSW signals are fantastic, something that's been muchly needed in Trainz for quite some time now!

Keep up the great work everyone!



Cheers,

Matt

Thanks Matt and Phil for your support - I appreciate it.

Just an update. There appears to be some delay in processing 'uploads' to the DLS. I haven't received a request to approve 9 assets that were uploaded over the last weekend. Just need to be patient I guess.

Today I've uploaded five single 'older type' Sydney shops to the DLS as well. ( I took the advice of Dave, who suggested a single building could be more easily used on a variety of routes.)

Here are those kuids:
<kuid2:508637:22252:1> AUS Shops 8
<kuid2:508637:22253:1> AUS Shops 9
<kuid2:508637:22254:1> Aus Shops 10
<kuid2:508637:22255:1> AUS Shops 11
<kuid2:508637:22256:1> AUS Shops 12

When the DLS gets working again, I'll post a few more.

By the way, all NSWGR lovers,.... Dave, NSWGR_46class has kindly updated the panto's on most of his NSWGR fleet (27 in fact). They are compatible with elstoko's NSWGR Catenary range.

These units are now available and ready for download on the DLS.

Cheers,
Roy

The DLS has drawn a 'blank' for me today - Maybe it was a public holiday and the N3V boys have gone for a swim.

The only two fences I know of, that are similar to your link are ,...

<kuid:-25:505> Fence QR 4Platform
<kuid:-12:123452> Fence 4Platform QR

Both are skinny, but you wouldn't know unless you had to sit on it. lol

[NSWGR_46Class]

Hello all just a quick note about items that are popping up on the DLS with the RHB prefix - there not much new about these assest but a few changes away from the older versions.

RHB items have changes made as requsted by old mate Roy to run on his Sydney route. These units now use the freewear V set panto from Davido = not the B set panto on DLS and set up to use elstoko's range of NSWGR overhead not Davido's

if your using Davido's overhead on routes stick to the older assest - non RHB
if using elstoko's range of NSWGR overhead use RHB items

[Roy3b3]

Many thanks to Dave for updating his range of NSWGR stock - It's greatly appreciated by myself and no doubt by many others.

Here's a few shots with the new equipment.

In the 1950s it was just as busy around Central as it is today.


Also in the 1950s, it was common to see 'Steam, Diesel and Electrics' sharing the same area.

Here heading into Central Terminus is a NSWGR 48 Class Passenger set from Wollongong and faces off with a NSWGR 46 Class Passenger set heading for Katoomba. In the background, a NSWGR 19 Class with a full load from Darling Harbour pauses near the Mortuary Station waiting for clearance, before heading to Port Botany.


I should get on and finish my route.

Cheers,
Roy

Cheers Mick.
