Hi All,

Hi Noel,

Yes I am doing the spiral. I have the rails laid from Raurimu to Ohakune and will probably extend northwards to Taumaranui but still have to do lots of contouring and texturing. The spiral itself is about 90% done but with other activities going on atm it may be some time before it is ready to upload so don't hold your breath.

Cheers,

Hi Rugrat,

Looks good. Now we have a range of NZR rollingstock and locos, what say we start a thread for NZ screenshots.

Hi Bill

keep up the good work ... great to see more New Zealand Rail content ....and seeing a nicely detailed layout of the spiral will be a real treat

Hi Rugrat

Your screenshot looks brilliant Rugrat ... a real sence of NZ there!!

cheers

Fantastic screens Rugrat :)

Could someone maybe post the external links to the NZ rolling stock here? I might have a go at a kiwi route in the near future. Possibly something local like Dunedin - Port Chalmers or maybe a bit more extensive like the Taieri Gorge line to Middlemarch if I can get my hands on a good DEM map.
I may have a good source of info soon as I'm doing a bit of work for Dunedin station for the city council and hopefully they might help out with track and gradient diagrams.
If anyone has any info on the area I would really appreciate a look if it could help with construction.

And you should also find some DJ's (they would fit in perfectly with the area your talking about), an Xp goods wagon, some URL log cars, LPA wagons and a J class sheep wagon on the DLS.

there is also some DCs on the DLS however dule to the bogey file being updated these locomotives are faulty (non recoverable) so i wouldn't bother downloading them...

Took a Drewry railcar for a run on my route....



I'm impressed by the content that Caleb is putting out, welldone to that man. Look forward to seeing more content from you.:)
 
Real nice pic colhad, very good texturing. Unfortunately the railcars won't work in 2004, I will get to them later when I import my route to 2006.
