The file library is a great new addition. My first download was Tim's Sacramento Northern steeplecab. Its a fabulous model with exquisite detail. Well done Tim! I photographed it here trailing a couple of Tim's outside braced boxcar repaints.

Wow, not that's an amazing picture, no doubt enhanced by POV knowing you. Still it's an example that there can be some interesting models come out of TSM, I don't know how he does with that program, but he does.

I talk nicely to it ;)

No, really, I just seem to get along with TSM. Alot of it is the textures, and not being afraid of polys.

Wayne,thanks for your praise! That is a truly maginificent picture. But I notice the panto is off center. I'm wondering if your POV has mis-read the add-on shape file?

Hi Tim,

I think I know what happenned with the pantograph. After I exported from train-sim to povray, I noticed I had accidentally placed the loco with the trolley pole pointing forward. So, I spun the loco around in povray, but I failed to spin the 'freight_anim' accessories which include the panto.

BTW - thanks for uploading the caboose car model!

Greetings from Balad, Iraq,

I downloaded 651 a couple of days ago, and it is truly awsome. Unfortunatly, I lost my SN Route a couple of months ago when my 'puter crashed. I will have to start it again. Do you mind if I modify it with new numbers (650-654)? that's a project that will keep me occupied for a while. I am enclosing a photo of the west portal of Redwood Tunnel, and my MSTS West Portal. Enjoy!!!! AGAIN, GREAT model.

Hey Don,
Glad to see you are still alive. Sorry to hear about the loss of the route, but I am sure it will be great whenever you get it done.

Hi Don,

You feel free to re-paint the SN steeplecab to any number you want. I don't mind at all, and would like to see more screens of the route ( with the steeplecabs) as you go. Sorry to hear about the loss of your SN route. But re-starts always give you opportunity to improve, eh? ( gotta keep thinking positively, right?)

God bless and thanks,

Tim
