Morning thunder - the H-SUPNTW behind three different EMD models - SD40-2, GP60 and SD60M at Hinckley, MN.

I love this screenshot!
Thank you.

On a crisp fall morning, Kentville & Eastern's KVWJ job is seen departing Kentville Yard, with a pair of TM units separating a set of GP40M-2's. KERC is currently experimenting with the schemes on the TM's at the moment. Nothing has been officially decided.

You're welcome. The radii of the headlights and ditchlights were set at 0.6 initially, but for this occasion, this gets a 1.8 radius.To mimic bright ray of light in the rain.

The FJ&G borrows a GP11 from sister company KERC, as the local heads to Gloversville to do it's M-W-F switch job.

[bertwise]

Wow! Just Wow!

[CSRX]

BF3? I recall a lot more destruction, tanks, and guns on Battlefield 3.

Nah, very excellent photos Neil! You are a scientist when it comes to route mods!

I'd be very curious what you could pull off on the two routes I am building, if I ever do manage to send them out to people. haha.

Now I ain't really into fictional stuff, but your stuff always seems to catch my eye. Great work on those units!

Thanks. Growing up with Iron Roads owning the Bangor & Aroostook, Canadian American, Iowa Northern, and a couple of others, I was always inspired by the CP Script knock off paint job they had, so I made it my own with a few changes. Ironically enough, Iron Roads did own a railroad that operated between Windsor and Hantsport in the 90's.

Beautiful Shay locomotive downloaded from this site (MSP Shays), has a unique mostly-accurate sound and I smiled when I turned to the left and saw my fireman I've been driving this one a lot, you see some of 3DTS' Donner pass in the background, not sure why I can't make the image larger. EDIT: Thanks rdayt!








Not completely accurate but a unique and fun to observe mechanism https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shay_locomotive

You need to use an image hosting service like imgur.
