Thought I'd post a few shots of the route while it's uploading.

Plenty of AI traffic to see while working the Amsterdam Yard. While the Amsterdam Yard crew makes up a train for the Kellogg Branch NYC BB-1 heads west along the Mohawk River.

It's going to be a hot one! The crew of 7792 makes up the first train for the Kellogg Branch while a Fonda Johnstown and Gloversville Brill Bullet heads east to Schenectady.

7792 works it's way up the 2.6% grade along Route 5 with a short train for the Kellogg Branch.

The crew is just departing Forrest Avenue with a few cars for Mohawk Carpet, which can be seen in the distance about a mile away.

Very Nice! Is this a new route you're working on?

Very Nice Paul. :rotfl: While I have never been able to fully enjoy any of your works of art. (I desperately need a new PC which is strong enough to run routes like yours), I always enjoy and appreciate all the beautiful works of art you do. May I ask what will be the next route, if any?

Thanks,
Zach

Hi Zach,

I too have a pretty poor PC and hit spots on all my routes where I come to a grinding halt while the next tile loads. As it turned out in this route it loads where I'm not in any critical areas doing switching. I'm going to have my brother in law wrap a computer around a decent video card someday soon!

I'm going to go back a finish the Dominion Atlantic route I started a couple of years ago. Google recently uploaded more satellite shots that cover almost the rest of the route, so I have something to work from.

Paul :-)
