Hey JB is that a personal route? I'm not asking for it, just wondering.
EDIT:
I'm pretty sure the proper question is 'Who doesn't like ALCo Alligators?'

Haha, don't worry. In this case especially you would be glad we'd be - at best - delaying releasing that. As it stands, that 261 mockup is too tall, requires extensive redetailing up front, lacks a proper tender logo, an all-weather cab, needs a single smokestack, new ARN, etc...

Regardless, you never know what the future holds!
Yeah, I had a feeling it was too tall from this shot...

Cause I noticed that it looked a little to thin since I just saw 265 a few days ago. But anyways, it looks good (sorry I was looking back at old posts and found this).

Yeah, it's a generic western route that I like to occasionally mess around on and try new things. With about 30ish miles of track and a ruling grade of about 2.2%, it's pretty fun to run on too.

Morrisville and Ancamber GP9 #77, unpainted since being acquired from Guilford's Springfield Terminal, trundles down the former
Pine Bluff and Paloma line to Columbia, Missouri, now owned by the city of Morrisville and leased to the MAR, with a short local.


No.77 will hand off these cars to the LWP in the interchange track just south of town before heading back to retrieve and switch/spot cars north of town.

Portland Terminal #44 trundles down to the end of the UP yard to pick up it's cut of cars before heading off into the Guilds Lake Industrial district to do its work. The BNSF yard is off in the distance past the TOFC/COFC unloading ramps.

A bit later the crew has finished most of their moves, and they head back to the Terminal yard to drop their cars and go for the quit.

From what I have heard, the route only covers a small portion of the East Slope line, (and does not cover the West Slope at all) and only goes from Antis (a couple miles east of Altoona) westward to just past Cresson, and may be the Fishlipsatwork HOG DEM

Amazing shot with FEF and Challenger
I'll bet. Hey, if you get a chance, I wanna discuss a few things through Skype. Specifically about the Exposition Flyer Pack 1.
