Hi folks,hmm, this new "wherezit" game got me, late at night. OK, bear with me jumping on the band wagon for one round of it. How well do you know your routes, folks? Find below five screen shots from five different routes. None of them is add-on payware, so you all have a fair chance that you have it or once had it. Try to name as many of them as possible, and also try to give the proper location (let's say: The correct portion of the line/correct name of the branch etc. does it).You'll earn 1 (one) point for each correct route, 1 (one) point for naming the correct location, gives a maximum of 10 points. Grades:0-1 Points - Apprentice. Do some more brakeman duties and listen to the stories your driver has to tell.
2-3 Points - Yard Switcher. You finally earned your train drivers' wings. You still know the yards better than the mainlines. Time to get some serious assignments.
4-5 Points - Line-Man. You have a solid line-man's knowledge of your routes. But getting some exercise on those rarely used branches wouldn't hurt you, would it?
6-7 Points - Driver of the Year: You are up to it. Good knowledge of your whereabouts. But do/does your parents/girlfriend/wife know what you are doing all night long on that computer?
8-9 Points - Senior Driver: Here we have an expert. I assume you've been running them trains all of your life?
10 Points - Instructor: Congratulations. You were just promoted. But oops, that unfortunately means: No more driving the trains yourself. Can you stand watching the novices abuse those throttles & brake handles?
No1: Which route? Which branch or town?
No2: Which route? Where about?
No3: Which route? Which facility?
No4: Which route? Where about?
No5: Which route? Describe that nameless' branches approximate location?
(No, don't call the animal right's activists. I stopped the engine and didn't run that moo-moo over)Anyone willing to accept the challenge? Your scores, plus correct answers will be posted early next week (possibly Tuesday, 25th). Have fun till then,Lukas a.k.a Swissie
