The snow wasn't good enough for me. I made it better. I think. Thoughts?

Looking great! I love a good Sooper Troopers (or Willy Wonka, depending on your taste) reference! ;)

Well, I didn't think this was possible! You should seriously consider releasing this.

Trust a Vermonter to get snow right.

Maybe this should be part of the official open rails release?

Comment : Funny, I was just about to post a similar comment...Vermont, and "Christmas card-perfect" winter snow scenery , are one, and the same. On an interesting note, also, about 2 months ago, I also "took to task" to create a revised Snow environment, with better overall snowfall "ambience" and lighting, in the Environment folder, and much more "credible" snowflakes , of a proper "scale" ( as opposed to default "shopping cart-size" ones ... ).

Snow, and / or, Winter, in MSTS / Open Rails, can be a whole lot more, than just an after-thought, or yet another "novelty". If done well, this ends up like outright "adding"..., an entire New Route, to the existing / summer default, one.

Nice work with this entire scene on the screenshot ! '-)
