Welcome Back. I suppose some of the nicer things that have been posted; 1. Microsoft has posted an update to MSTS on their official website. Supposed to allow you to upgrade to version 1.2. The upgrade includes a very nice SD40-2 with new cabview, credit to TrainArtisan, as well as several nice US freight cars. Also includes a nice British class 50 diesel with a rake of passenger cars. 2. Fozzybear released a very nice Rio Grande K-36 Mikado steam engine, narrow gage prototype but built to run on MSTS standard track. It inspired a whole batch of people to start creating narrow gage rolling stock. 3. I was impressed by a Chinese QJ class 2-10-2 which was released recently. Nobody has yet figured out a name to credit for the nice work. 4. Svante has rejoined the community and released a large group of intermodal equipment. I'm glad to see him return, and see his work available again. Dan Dan
