Jan-27-02, 11:42 AM (EST) "Ottawa O-Train" Just wondering if anyone has considered trying to make Ottawa's O-Train? It's a fairly unique vehicle, I don't think anything like it exists yet for MSTS. Here's a pic from their website: CheersDave GO Transit GIFs courtesy of Alex Stroshane

Jan-27-02, 02:49 PM (EST) 1. "RE: Ottawa O-Train" LAST EDITED ON Jan-27-02 AT 02:51 PM (EST)That bridge is about 2 minutes from my High School back in Ottawa. About 12 of us used to go out there and watch trains at lunch. Those are EX CP tracks ( Close to Carleton University ) and a little further up there is quite a large tunnel which runs under part of the Ottawa River / Dows lake area.There is also a 90* track crossing there as well used by VIA Rail.Within a 45 minute span during lunch everyday, we would see 3 VIA trains and about every other day a CP Freight.As for someone making those units......Dunno Yet...heheTim Kent
