Collelagues,

Slight error. The O&W etc. will be part of the 2nd district. I am currently working on the
3rd district and the extreme north end is just north of CW Tower. One of the major line...

Colleagues,

At the request of Dudley Evans, I am finishing up his 3rd district of the CNO&TP, the northern
part of which will become the southern part of my 2nd district. To accomplish this, I...

I should point out that this stretch around Cumberland Falls was single track in the late 60s
but when it was constructed (1961-1963) the R/W was made wide enough for double track
and by the early...

I'm going to do the whole route in 3 parts to the extent that I can. I have doubts
about how popular it would be as there is not much online industry. It was, and is,
pretty much a bridge route...

Robert,

The Rat Hole was quite a line. Although I was hired 2 years after the various line changes
were completed that took out all but the 4 tunnels that remain, you could still see where
many...

I have all of the necessary track charts, etc. for the whole CNO&TP. When I complete this 3rd district which
I am doing for a friend in Tennessee, who, being legally blind, has considerable...

The first district did not have a particular name. The 2nd district was the Rat Hole. In the very beginning there was one
tunnel north of Danville, on the segment just north of High Bridge. It...

Colleagues,

A friend in Tennessee asked me to check over, rehash as necessary, and then release his version
of the CNO&TP 3rd district, Oakdale, TN to Chattanooga. I have in the works, my own...

I don't use scale rail. What I do use a lot is M-tracks because the turnouts are accurate for
US routes. And you run into some oddities. For example, I have completed the main stem
mainline and...

I use dynamic track only as much as is absolutely not avoidable. And the comment about the local tsection.dat file is correct, but
I never have merged two routes. What I have done, is used a route...

I haven't got the route (yet) but this idea of "historical significance" is a good one. There are a
number of lines that fit the category. For example, in my own bucket list is the Camas Prairie...

I believe this topic has been kicked around over the years but in laying track for
the L&N Main Stem (CSX calls it the Main Line Sub.) I realized that one feature
of this line, especially between...

Friends,

Originally there were four branches and one mainline off the mainstem. The Bardstown
branch departed the mainline about mile 22 and extended east for several miles with the
main town...

Those are nice, but what I have in mind is passenger equipment. One would also need PRR passenger
equipment including the square end observation cars of the type used on the Broadway Ltd. As far...

As for the Biloxi station mentioned in the previous thread, it existed the last time I was
through there on the Sunset Ltd., August 2005. It was damaged by Katrina but I
believe it was repaired....

Colleagues,

I started on this line a week ago and have made passable progress having
put Louisville at the North End and Nashville at the south end - those two
"routes" are in the unfinished...

The L&N Corbin-Knoxville line is in the library as of a month or so ago and I am now
working on the Louisville-Nashville Line. In parallel, I am also working on the C&O
(or CSX) Big Sandy south,...

I don't find high enough resolution with .hgt data, so I will continue to use the USGS
data and DEMEX as long as I can. Soon be going to Win-10 from Win-7 though and that
might seal my fate.
...

Colleagues,

Any of you that have downloaded the Louisville Terminal should discard it and
download a version 2 which I just uploaded an hour or so ago. I guess it will
appear on Monday.

The...

It has been a couple of weeks since I obtained any data from USGS but then it worked fine.
Having said that, the downloaded files (I use the 1/3 arc-sec data) generally won't work
with DEMEX unless...

I had to do one other thing. Put a sound source on the new start tile, otherwise the rebuild crashed
almost before it got started. Then there were a few of the usual end-end errors and this time I...

Colleagues,

I am starting a new route, so there is a work-around for the issue I will describe.

I created the framework for the new route, and generated terrain. Now, I want to
add two...
