I agree so much. It hurts my soul every time I'm assigned an intermodal train and that doesn't have articulated well and spine cars. External dispatching should also be native. A lot of computer...

Happy Birthday to your dad. Thanks for sharing.

I really would like to dispatch with OTTO if possible. In V2, I could create passing and meet scenarios. As crazy as it might sound, I don't mind waiting 20-30 minutes for a meet or permit a Z train...

I remember my then 7yr old niece photographing me photographing my first up close view of a BNSF ES44C4 making a rare trip on our local strip of the KCS line. It would be nice if she shared my...

Waycross, GA has more of a purpose with the Fitzgerald Sub.

We use to see 4 or 6 trains a day south of Fort Polk, LA a year ago, and never saw any value in spending much time at the Dequincy, LA train watching post. And the Pine siding could see a train tied...

I might be doing something wrong, but I can't get any train but Q177 to go from Duval to Taft. All other trains turn at the Duval Connection for Baldwin Subdivision. I am attaching a link to my...

Not going to lie: I bought the Fitz sub without even looking at the price.

I am doing the same thing tonight. I've been playing the hell out of ATS in my spare time. But I just want to run a train in the Southeastern US. I really want to move stuff to through the...

Watched a little MST3K while waiting at Taft for traffic to clear. OTTO didn't mind.

Pack 3 is pretty good. I would have liked NS since they ran more DC power. But I'll take BNSF H3 and CSX.

That is a good question. Based Wikipedia

A large coal train called a "unit train" may be two kilometers[3] (over a mile) long, containing 100 railcars with 90 metric tons in each one, for a total...

Well, at least its not a point system where users are punished for what developers/server operators determine are insufficient work hours. :)
I'd be written up every week no matter how many excuses...

South Eastern Region is my favorite. I think Q456 will route you to Waycross. I recommend a coal train. I spawn one at Ludowici. This takes me through Nahunta Subdivision. Or you can edit the XML to...

I use postimg.cc to upload my screen then copy "Hotlink for forums" link because my images are 2560x1440. Gives a good thumbnail size for people to click on.

These are some V3 picks. Taking shots can be a little tricky with shadowing.

OTTO isn't giving me some trains to move south. N165 and Q473 are holding around Callahan. The track at Dinsmore is lined for Duval. I want Q473 to go past Orlando. I have the feeling I am doing...

Does Bakersfield have a lot of railroad crossings? Really thinking about getting that one. Crossings keep you on your toes.

The world has a date of 2018. It's one of two worlds that was present when I copied V2 stuff over. I decided to delete all the trains and began placing them around the world. I will establish a few...

I have two ASUS monitors. My old 27in IPS didn't need calibrating for Run8. My newer TUF needs it's own settings. I have the brightness higher and lowered the RGB. I have to change settings for Ready...

Thanks westerngy. I really not familiar with UP operations. I usually neglect Mojave. Now I'm passing it on to OTTO.

Rebuilding my Southern California Operation is going to be headache. I tried...

Thank you jlsantos. I absolutely don't like the ATSF paint scheme, even if it hearken back to better days for the railroad. I haven't checked out the locomotive for that reason. I would love to see...

In the spirit of the post, what trains will OTTO run past Hobart Yard (east and west directions)? I use to have trains go past Hobart and they would continue toward West Taylor, if I'm not mistaken....

It can be thrilling to get those meets scheduled. Single track is challenging You have to decide where a meet will happen and try not to have trains waiting long periods of time. Double-track isn't...

V3 looks better, but I noticed the rear truck on the ES44DC appears to be borrowed...
