That errant track over there to the way left does not crash into the building like that; rather, it travels in between those buildings up to the gift shop/ restroom area! Oh, and the parking lot pavement is a little off.I know you're aware of this,Mr. Helfrick; just thought I'd be a pain in the neck and bring it up!

It just appears to be like that due to the crappy resolution of the screen grab. The parking lot looks great in "real" life. The green building is just a place holder for now, and the track does not crash into it, just appears to in the pic. I did a lot more to the yard area after this screen grab was taken, extending the parking area to meet the road that travels in front of the engine shed and the small access road that runs along the side yard tracks.
BTW, do you (or anyone) have any photos of the houses in front of the mall area, along 741?Thanks for the comments, any advise always appreciated!Chris

Good! Mind if I ask how big this route is?

Are you looking for real estate or file size?Chris

File size. I'd sort of hope it's, well, about 4.5 miles long!For the corn maze, you could probably make a big block of corn that roughly fits the terrain, then put a corn texture on top with thick black lines running through it. I think there's already corn in the library.

Have you gotten around to modeling the "Red Caboose Lodge", which is nearby? That would be quite a little project in itself.

Not to mention also, the corn field maze across the tracks from the red caboose lodge too?

Actually, the Cherry Crest Amazing Maize Maze is located 1 1/2 miles down the track at an area called Cherry Hill.
