Random Style of the Day: Commonwealth Maroon

Commonwealth Maroon is a deep reddish-brown color used by Commonwealth Railways, the Australian government-owned railway company, from 1949 to 1975. It was easy to see from a distance, even in the harsh Australian outback, and it was also relatively resistant to fading in the sun.

  • Just Trains Announces China Railways SS1 Locomotive

    Just Trains Announces China Railways SS1 Locomotive

    With a total production run of 819, the SS1 was developed in China with the assistance of the Soviet Union in the early 1960s as an AC (Alternating Current) electric-powered locomotive for passenger services, but as time progressed its passenger services were passed to newer, faster trains and the SS1 started to haul freight instead. That later era is reflected in this pack, which includes the C64 and P62 freight wagons. Single-headed the SS1 can haul up to 2,500 tons but double-headed...

  • Site Outage
    by eric

    Yep, the site was down for most of Tuesday, but it's back.

    Sometime overnight Monday, the site's databases experienced an anomaly which forced a rebuild from backups. Fortunately, we had good backups from Monday around 8pm, and the file uploads weren't affected at all aside from missing in the catalog.

    Right now, things appear stable. There may have been a few posts or private messages lost, but a few were able to be recovered and restored. All of the files uploaded yesterday...

  • State of the Site - August 2024
    by eric

    I had to do a double-take when I looked at the date today... Yes, September is just around the corner. With that, my youngest started what's hopefully his last semester at the University of North Texas this week, and my granddaughter went back last week to start her last year in elementary school. Time flies way too fast in that regard. Heading back to school also means one of my favorite times of year -- NFL football is back. While the pre-season is not supposed to be an indicator of anythin...

  • Memberships and Why They Matter
    by eric

    Checking Trainsim has been part of my daily routine for the better part of the last 20 years.

    It's like checking the news -- I turn on the PC or open a browser on my phone, and it's there.

    And I'm glad it is -- there are folks here I've known to varying degrees dating back 20 years, and this hobby is one of the few distractions I get from everyday life, and for that I'm grateful.

    Some of you may not realize how close this site came to being like UKTrainsim...

    Happy Independence Day!

    It's hard to believe we're already halfway thru the year, but that's where we are.

    I do apologize for writing this a bit late -- hopefully by now, everyone who celebrates the day has had a chance grab a burger or brat at a cookout, and is getting ready to sit back and watch for some fireworks either tonight or in the coming days.

    Listening from my home office, the celebrating started in our neighborhood last night and hasn't stopped....

    The folks at TrainSimulations.Net have another great rolling stock set for us....

    This set offers the standard Pacific Car and Foundry 57' car that was in widespread use from the 1960's to the 1990's. A few still remain in service today...

    I'm happy to announce all four packs produced for the 3DTrainStuff.com West Colton route by DieselsWest are now available for purchase in our storefront.

    These packs are essential for anyone who owns the West Colton route, and I have to say, look pretty darn good on the Shasta as well.

    Also available from DieselsWest is their Burlington Northern U30C setalso available. If you're a fan of late Second Generation GE power, you'll want to check this set out.
