Well an activity I made, I played it for two hours and 44 minutes, so I guess i'll round it up to three. It involved lots of switching cars, building trains, and swapping cars, and I wasnt even halfway finished. But I eventually deleted the activity for a more simpler one.
Built a consist of fifty coal and a Big-Boy. Tried to take it over Marias 3.0. Found out the hard way one BB is *not* enough. But in keeping with the goal, broke the train in thirds and shunted each third up to Java, then again from there to summit (eastbound).Did pause for a sandwich or two, boy, was the missus glad to see me turn the 'durned thing' off after that
8 am to 12 Midnightnew years eve, Marias pass, down once to Kalispell, turn the engines, shove the cars into Whitefish, and pull back out towards the other end again. COuldn;t figure out how to turn it from there, so i shoved cars in every available siding i could find.

The longest I have played MSTS is 4 1/2 hours, first day I got the sim. Default Marias, from Shelby to Whitefish with One GP38-2 and three boxcars (that dissapeared under my nose - probably while I was busy in the cab at Cutbank). All speed limits obeyed to the letter.Take care!Kurt Come ride my little train that is rolling down the tracks to the Junction.... - 1963 "Petticoat Junction"
