Here are some pics from my fictional Columbia Valley Pacific. The CVP represents a 1920's to 1950's mountain railroad serving mainly the mining and forest industry in southern BC.

These are from the recently completed Yale Gorge area.

Very impressive indeed. RW/TS201X sure has the eye candy down. I think even the ambient light is improved. While the fog effect might be a bit much for the distance indicated, the sprawling vegetation does capture the feel of being there.

Amazing! I love so much of what TS2016 offers visually.

BTW, Wayne, is London, Port Stanley for TS/RW dead? I hope not, as I for one would love to see it come over in all the beautfiul splendour your screenshots from some time back promised.

Thanks all. The CVP is a fun project.

Railroad Librarian, I haven't worked on the L&PS for some time. Maybe one day...

Amazing work, Wayne! Until I saw Tims models I mistook it for TS2016 or real life!

Here are some shots taken at Panaska, the CVP's interchange point with the Canadian Pacific.

Stunning work. Absolutely stunning.

Makes me sad about firing up the old Dinosaur and seeing what I will see therein. :cray:

Edit:

Just for my own curiosity, Wayne, may I ask you a few questions?

* How long is your route?

* How much (rough guess in percentile) has full scenery in place?

* How how long did it take to get to this stage?

Thanks.

I dread learning a new simulator program like a possum dreads an axe handle... but those results are simply head and shoulders above anything else. Period.
