Hi Xiangong,
Speaking of Windsor, if you ever wanted to try a route, the Essex Terminal might be a good first attempt. It is 22 miles long, connects CN, CP, CSX and NS. It serves a variety of industries (Auto, salt mine, marine terminal, lumber) so it has some decent switching opportunities. It has GP9's (including the last one built) and an SW1500 [which are available as DLC and potenial repaint material].
http://www.niagararails.com/etr.phtml lists the current timetable.

Hi! I had forgotten about this route. Where is it available? I checked this library, Trainsim.com and Google, and found nothing. Cheers; Chuck F.

Hi Chuck,
Sorry for the confusion. It only exists in reality, as far as I know. I was suggesting it as a possible project for Xianggang if he ever wanted to attempt constructing a route which would take place in his hometown of Windsor.

Okay, I get your point, finally. The route I was thinking of was the Bay of Quinte Railway, by Jason Sills, but I don't remember where I got it from. Cheers; Chuck F.
