Nicely done Shawn! :clapping:

COER's "Scoot" makes its way back to Pueblo after making its second stop in Pueblo. The Scoot is a Pueblo - Royal Gorge service, always steam powered. :good:


Up at Dotsero, train 10I makes its way North lead by a pair of GP40-2's. These "short" TOFC trains are called "Pig Rockets" :) by the crews as the 10I and 11I are meant to be extremely speedy.

Thanks guys!
In reality, I may actually place WMRC into my n-scale layout. If I end up doing custom painted locomotives for Guilford/Pan Am, why not do it with my fictional road? :clapping:

I don't currently have any equipment painted up for the Kentville & Eastern Railroad (for MSTS/ORTS) but for starters, it operates the former Dominion Atlantic Railway. :)


Fictional railroading itself is keeping me interested in MSTS/ORTS honestly.

Now, imagine if WMRC purchased Pan Am completely. I think if I did do that, Mechanicville to Boston, would simply be sold to Norfolk Southern. But that would also be a lot of rail lines to upgrade/fix and rebuild.. May be out of our budget..

CPW has began a program to rebuild all of our C40-9's that are in storage. Here are 8701 and 8700 fresh out the shops of Dallas. 8700, being the first to be rebuilt, is sporting the golden brow scheme.

Word. Though actual railroading still has a place MSVR is the majority of my activity.
You have been busy indeed Nash; I had no idea Luke shared his repaints (or did you do them yourself off of his?). I really like the idea of the special paint scheme for lead units of a class.
MSVR montage until after ACT.
MSVR F40PH-2D 805 stopped at Santa Ana with a northbound local express service.

Lovin' that D9!

How about a Virtual Scale model of a cartoon railroad? Train No. 2, the "Fiddletown Flyer" ready to leave Copperopolis on the Fiddletown & Copperopolis Railway of the late Carl Fallberg:


The infamous Tehachet Loop


Crossing Goshawful Gulch




Doesn't get much more fictitious than that! :)
