This BNSF route modernization is coming to TS Classic.

The route will have completely reworked scenery, towns, bridges and corrected signals. Several improvements compaired to the 2013 version.

Kris120 and I are working on modernizing the route for TS classic.

Here are a few screenshots of reworked areas:

This will be cool! I wish I read this post sooner, I'm tidying up the entire Hi-Line Subdivision (Whitefish - Havre). Literally 4 days ago, haha.

Perhaps I can send you the file for what I've gotten so far and you guys can continue it from there? I removed and replaced a lot of signals, bridges, crossings, and track beds (some parts are now concrete)

Oh, MickyMike24
Glad to hear that you are also reworking the Hi-Line subdivision. I'm sorry to say that I have done a whole lot more than you've done. Just to say the scenery is also being redone.
Here are the sections that are fully complete : (scenery too!)

1. Whitefish - West Glacier
2. Nyak -East Java
3. Meriwether - Shelby

Here is a picture of East Conkelly :

Of course. The timetable isn't the newest but it's a good benchmark. As well as the operations map.

So this is an un-official update for . . ?

Looks great, I better get the official Marias Pass quickly. But dang, 20$ is kind of steep for a ten year old route.

On Steam I read that the track should be not concrete but mostly wood. Is that correct, and will that perhaps be corrected ?

Official? What's that supposed to mean? In any event it's one of the great routes of all time so it's easily worth $20...........................or you can wait for a sale. As usual wherever you read this about the ties it's all depends on what date if it should be wood or concrete ties.

Or you could buy the route and then sweet talk me into sharing a copy with wood ties. !*roll-laugh*! !*roll-laugh*!
