Welcome and just add a couple of posts somewhere and I'll OK them so you can post some pictures. Being from the Midwest I look forward to this.

talking more so i can post photos!!! but i also wanted to say that this route will only have 2 payware requirements, the Tennessee Pass by MPS and the Promontory Summit by Smokebox. theres a lot of 3rd party requirements but ill list those when im done. also when im done with the route, i will start spending more time on another route that goes from Dolores, CO to Mancos. I already modeled the RGS business car Rico that i wanted to go with this route, but unfortunately i have zero idea how to import rolling stock to TSC much less give it transparent/reflective textures and all that. !*don-know!* !*don-know!*

thank you!!! i have 1 obj file for each set of wheels (4), 1 obj file for each bogie (2) and 1 obj file for the car body. usually when i import models i just import the objs to 3d crafter, texture them with normal png images, and import it to tsc as an IGS. for rolling stock though, idk what my next step should be
