A fine route with lots of potential. Amazing scenery, lots of curves(Straight track is found mostly in the yards), perfect for those running locos not suited for high speed. Great cruising. One small note- while the descriptions for the route stress no non-default equipment, a Shell Oil tanker is found in one of the act. files and can prompt good ol'"send/don't send". A minor quibble, easily fixed (look under us2shell in the file library). Over all a terrific effort.BTW, there are some very nice suprizes, too (them that know, don't give'em away). Screen shots ought to be incredible!Kudos to Woelferl!

Hi, I had seen your screen shots yesterday, and they were what prompted me into d/lding this a.m. You are right about all the bridges, a veritable showcase of engineering. As for the suprizes, go back in and look up. I found at least three different examples of aviation,terrestrial and not!DOH! Gave 'em away. If you cant find them , call back and I'll spot 'em for you.BTW, the NS is a good choice. Until or unless someone comes up with a short-line livery for this route, my intention is to run both NS and the CPR on this.
Also, I would like to mention that this route plays on my machine with frame rates 15 to 25, comparable to the FBL(hellooo, YLW!).

It looks like I was posting my thread at the same time you did yours. Oh well, this route is probably worth two threads.
