"cracked desert floor" texture does not look right on cliffs Can you post a picture of this? I'm not sure I understand what you are writing about? Big Papa edit: I feel this is only your opinion. My opinion is that it does look correct using a touch of the editors "cliff edges". Depending on the va...

Big Papa, Where were you when you watched that Program? The only PBS Station on Ch. 36 is my area in KQIN-Iowa Public Television out of Davenport, IA I'm in the Milwaukee Wisconsin area, I guess I should fill that out in my info. We have two PBS TV stations: 10 & 36. Tracks ahead was on channel 36 ...

universum, I finally got some time, played into the second era and will have to pick it up from there. I hope my computer will hold out. Your Utah looks nice. It's had to replicate the some of the world's greatest scenery; covering the whole state and all, there just isn't enough room. I like the Na...

Here is the link to the "Tracks Ahead" show that they had on my local PBS station (Public Broadcasting Service). http://www.tracksahead.net/ They just took it off last month, too bad because they were showing a new show 5 days of the week (1/2 hour long each). Some of the series is a bit dated but i...

BadKharma, Nice choice. I caught a "Tracks Ahead" episode on PBS (they just pulled it off the air last month :x , channel 36) with some old timers telling a story about a time when they use to "catch" a ride on the Hiawatha from Milwaukee to Chicago. They use to time the ride between mile posts or r...

:D :D :D Double WOW. You guys really did a fantastic job on this!!! The detail on the engines is incrediable. My hat's off to you. Thank you Merlin. The engine painting was a lot of work to correctly represent the prototypical engines. It took a lot of research to find out the dates and schemes. I ...

Oh...and the Gold and mail thing is very cool. I recalled hearing about Gold/Payroll Trains as soon as I read your post. How did you ever figure that out. Nice touch. I had to do some digging, knew that the cars in the standard game we not quite correct :lol:. Found a good story of transporting gol...

Thanks everyone for digging in trying to resolve issues. & also thank you for the compliments. I don't program so hopefully Choo will be around soon and get some stuff worked out. This has been a huge project.

Also half of the text is in metric and the rest in US measure 67 tons and 45mph. yet you have done the metric conversion for range and velocity The weight, horse power and max speed is just fluff. Tank main gun bores are always measured in millimeters. M1A1 main gun is also German design. US milita...

Maps and mods take a lot of time. The cool thing is that when you make one you can do it up however you want, objectives, size etc. Everyone here that has ever posted a map or mod gets two thumbs up from me. Thanks for all the hard work everyone.

Lowell,

Nice ships, I have modeled a container ship up to replace the one we currently have (it still needs paint) but those pictures look really nice.

All these Dual Engines, we need a way to specify what engine you want for your second engine. I don't really think the Railroads care much if the engines match........ snoopy55, Choo and I have 25 custom skins (prototypical) for the F3, GP7, GP38 & AC4400... which have add up to 33 engine combinati...
