Here is the trestle off of Olde Mill Creek Road. The only things that are missing from this scene are yellow flies and ticks!

The video below is of CSX Q136 I filmed going across the trestle in real life. I am enjoying the process of re-creating these scenes in the simulator...

Not much progress lately, but here is a shot near the "Wilroy Acres" area of Suffolk. I've been messing with the terrain and track-work in downtown Suffolk on the Norfolk Southern main as well. I will need to get creative here shortly when I stating modeling downtown. There are some odd buildings along the right-of-way.

This is looking really good. Your attention to detail shows through in the asset choices and placement. !!*ok*!!

Are you shaping the terrain by hand?

Thank you Boosted!

I downloaded and imported the terrain data. I've been modifying it quite a bit to make everything look more natural, but I did start with imported terrain.

I got some more work done around the neighborhood today. Mainly I placed a lot of scenery and did some more terrain painting. The Shoulders Hill Road grade crossing is seen in the first screenshot.

Howdy all,

I'd like to apologize for the lack of updates on this route. I am very much still working on it when at all possible. Unfortunately I have had to slow down on the amount of time I work on the route due to limited internet data. (I need the internet for more than just route building! *!greengrin!* )

I put together a time-lapse video of my progress about a week ago which I will upload when I get a chance. As far as Commonwealth trackage goes, I have completed more than half of the route. I've made good progress thus far and hope to continue to add to the route until it's completion...

!*cheers*!
