Yes, count me in, too, please. Like Neil, I would be willing to make a donation. You build great stuff.

Out of curiosity, what sky textures are you running to get that nice virga/light blend as you move from sky to horizon? Thanks.
The proper name for the crew transport was 'Renzenberger." They ran predominantly white 4WD Chevrolet Suburbans/Tahoes and 2WD Chevrolet vans, though they used Fords, as well. Renzenberger was...
Sadly, my 2021 list looks about the same as 2020's.
Locos:
Tier 4 GE locos--whalebacks.
Tier 4 EMD's.
Re-do of a lot of the old "Fred Flintstone" wheels models that have yet to be done.
...
Much as I prefer operating as realistically as possible when I sim, I don't use the "Break Couplers" option in Open Rails. Here is why: OR currently has no method to "manage" mid-train or rear...
Here is what I know about trademarks. First, the assumption--likely correct--is that the trademarks of the various railroads absorbed into the CN corporate umbrella are indeed registered and that CN...
Even simpler, the TSRE consist editor has a search function. Just enter "ARMN" in the search function and you should find the cars.
OK, here is a lighting section for the TrainSimulations NS GP38-2. This modification will likely only work in OpenRails. I no longer use MSTS, so I can't test it there. To use this, back up the...
Any chance those repaints might see a public release? Thanks.
All of this has been discussed some over on Elvas Tower. Here's my 2 cents.
Back in the MSTS days (when a lot of even our current routes were built), street lighting, etc. was often omitted, I...
Sorry that my earlier link didn't work. Here is one from Railpictures showing CN3105--a whaleback. Again, not my photo, but for illustration of a whaleback unit.
...
The picture of the 2022 is the original Tier 4 stack design, not the whaleback that is has been standard on ET-44's for at least 3 years now. The original ET-44 stack design was abandoned after it...
Are all of these the "original" stack design or are some of them the "whaleback" exhaust design that is now the standard?
Does this mean that this beautiful route may actually be released at some point? I think that I speak for many when I say, "I certainly hope so."
I went through some of this a few weeks ago, but with Windows 10. I had upgraded by computer to Windows 10 because I run some non-simulator programs that required it. All well and good. Then my...
Maybe this will persuade TrainSimulations to finally produce some GE Tier 4 locomotives . . .
I look at this a bit differently. Most of the SLI models that are being discontinued are older models that are just not up to current standards any longer. I know that a lot of repainters continue...
If this route is anything like Mullan in detail, quality, and authenticity, it will be another winner!
This problem was addressed over at Elvas Tower. The Description line is missing from the .eng file in both models. OR will not recognize them with that line missing. These were probably added as a...
Is the route "private stock," or something that might see a public release someday?
^I'm curious as to what route this is. I'm a fan of plains railroading. Thanks.
I, for one, would love to see that happen. NWL6 remains one of my favorite routes. Having this version would be the frosting on the cake. For the record, I have nearly all the 3DTS and SLI routes,...
As a person who worked in the railroad industry, well, welcome to real railroading! One of things that is great about OR is that the "Dispatcher" can intervene to break a bottleneck if it happens. ...
A chart like that would be great. I would love to see some GE Tier 4 units--"regular" and "whaleback"--put out that would use the new and much better shapes from the ORTS Seligman and Mullan...
I, too, very much like Mullan. Knowing the Rockies very well (grew up around them), this route is one of the better ones about having the scenery pretty close to reality. Since I have worked in the...
