Maybe from the wrong side of the Pond for most peoples' interest, but Bernard Deschamps (link to his site below) has, for quite some time been producing iconic and hugely atmospheric French narrow gauge prototype routes from the 1950s and 1960s. Exceptional detail, era and area specific assets, deep scenery placement - what comes across is the love that go into the routes - a lot of artistry - there's beauty in the very unique vehicles passing through totally gorgeous landscape - feel the sun, the heat, smell the creosote on the sleepers, the diesel oil, the steam, hear the cicadas, taste the wine, the cheese...beautiful...

A lot of MSTS routes and content as well, but in relation to the following screenshots, TSXX routes

Hi Rod,

Long time no see. Great looking shot, as all of yours usually are. Hope all is fine over on your side of the pond.

Hi Paul - Thank you on the shots - difficult not to take something good with modelling like Bernard's :).

Sort of off topic...

...I was thinking about you as I posted the first block of screenshots - hoping that all was well with you and your family. We have been fine here. The worst was at the start when it looked like social order was starting to break down with people panic buying toilet rolls. Strange times...

A few from CFD Vivarais...a large network...
