At the moment I have designed the layout of the project. I'm going to keep the station times as acurate as possible.I'll keep you updated when I can. Hopefully by then, an M1 should have been released to use with the line. I'll also be designing an M7a.The boy who bathes in mud and eats pie.

OK, good luck. I hope you realize this is going to take you a very long time if you want to do it right...Ambition is great, but don't any make promises unless you're absolutely certain that you'll be able to keep them. That's why the M-1/M-3s haven't been released - because at the time I didn't have the skills to complete the project well enough to satisfy myself and others.And not sure if you're aware, but there's a Hudson Line route in progress. The creator's been working on it for over a year I think, and it looks great. We've all been waiting patiently for it.

>http://www.trainweb.org/asamtrak911 Hudson Line runs in the end of Westchester/Hastings. The line I'm working on is the Harlem Line which basically connects from way North to 125st.So great, the Hudson Line should be in progress. Do you by any chance, have a line where I can check it out?I'm prepared for the long, impatient time to put effort in the route. I may need to borrow a digicam to get some real pics of the objects in that line to make it as real as possible. I'm a 3D modeler, btw.The boy who bathes in mud and eats pie.

Dear Dirty Boy,Search the "Microsoft Train Simulator" and "MSTS Route Design" fora for the author taracer. Tick the "Also search the archived threads?" box when you do. That should catch almost all of it...Hope you don't get any on the pie,
charlieEDIT: There may be some stuff in the Screenshot forum too...
