I will definitely be downloading this when it's available.

Real nice work, Brody!

Thanks, Neil! Got the AC44s nearly ready for upload, and I'm working on some new creamsicle painted SLI-based Bethgon coal cars to go along with them!

Did I mention those are some pretty Bethgons? Because those are some pretty bethgons. They'll probably be coated in coal dust before too long, but we can see them in their prime.

Fine work Brody.

An Interesting plan! I was never around during the time of the FBL's heyday in MSTS, as I only started with the sim originally in around 2010, but I've since moved to OR.

I'm definitely interested in the route, especially if it can come with some passenger operations

Work continues...

Some more texture reworking in the bucket Springs Canyon at Parkers suggestion.

Looking much better sir. My applogies about the PM box, it's open now.

I really do need to look at those PM limits. They seem low to me.

The route is nearing being ready for Release, just a few more kinks and some more testing.

on a side note I found a box of Train Sim CD's that I thought I had lost, it got packed in a box of other things 2 moves prior and I never unpacked that box 🙄. The collection contained my copies of the 3DTrains V4 F-Unit freeware sets along with the PSD paint kit that used to be available. So I decided to work on updating the older versions of 3DTrains F-units that are in the file library with the newer models, just to not get burned out on pulling weeds.

Hoping there will be activities included or an ActivityGenerator template.

Pretty sure the v3 activities will work, if there wasn't any major track database changes. I believe there is a template for the FBL available already.

There will be many activities included, from both V3 and older versions of the route.

Man, I can't wait for this one. I run FBL extensively. I have other routes, but I always come back to this one as home.

There is an Activity Generator (AG) Template I have done last year to commemorate its 20-year existence. I will be checking up this update to make sure it works too. Usually scenery enhancements (no track of sidings changes) won't prevent activities to work.

You can check on shots from activities generated from this template package by clicking on the following:
