NZ pics

Hi all,
If anyone's interested there's a group on Facebook called Train Simulation NZ. I post on the group regularly with updates on my Auckland network. It's not just for Trainz but MSTS, and Train Simulator 2015, drop by and have a look if your on Facebook :)
Cheers Jeran :)

Thanks for the heads-up! I just joined!
 
Hi guys

Good to see interest in the community. I'm still around, but a computer died on me a while ago and moving everything to the new one is causing quite a few headaches.
 
Evening all

Getting TRS2010 up and running on my new computer. Here are some shots of the Northern Explorer heading north this morning.

Good to see you posting screens again Ryan, I've missed your input. Would post some screens myself but I've spent more time away from home these past two months then at home! Feel a TRS binge coming on but can't do anything...

Great work!

Will :)
 
New Upper Hutt Station

I have modelled this new station from an architects sketch, so some imagination and good old fudge-ups have been incorporated. I usually upload these smaller files to DLS, but builds pre Trainz 3.7 ( TS12 SP1 ) are no longer being accepted by DLS. Therefore, if anyone wants the freeware Upper Hutt Station model, send me a P.M. including your Email addy. and I will send you the cdp file - works in TRS2009, TRS 2010 and TS12. I don't have TANE yet, so you may wish to try it and any errors, report to me and I will try and fix. Cheers, Fender :)

Just some shots of Kiwirail action in the Lower North Island over the last few months.

Firstly, we follow a Down freight through the Wairarapa

We then take some trips up the hill on slippery Matangis. Pre-departure at Wellington.

The DC (soon to be displaced, I'm told) is working hard as it climbs to the eastern portal of the Rimutaka Tunnel

DH's

DHs 2839 and 2822 on a short container freight leaving Mautoa today. DH's are retextured U10-B's, reskinned by myself and Azuremoon. smile emoticon

Nice shots Coolstuff55.

Here's a now fairly rare shot of a Ganz set on the 1621hrs train to Porirua at Takapu Road in great weather.

After stopping for a bit, we've been given the road to continue to Wellington

Apparently the new Upper Hutt station building was open for business today. Here we see an eight car Matangi heading that way passing the 1 kilometre post
