Give me a suggestion and I'll take a look.

Sorry for the delay in replying, this somehow got overlooked.
I'm thinking in terms of Colorado or Rocky mountain routes, where you have high peaks and deep valleys. The Feather River or Rollins Pass routes would be fair examples.

I love my triple screen option as it helps with the immersive factor. [If only I could use my Oculus VR ...sigh. Still don't understand why even the newest railroad sims don't recognize the interest in and value of VR is simming. But thats a whole different topic... ;) ].

I jump ahead of the train and catch him again at sloat siding, with the deep throated sounds of the big articulated locomotive echoing off the surrounding mountains.
The next location is east of Blairsden, not far from the Clio trestle.
Shot number four is just outside of Portola. The crew just has a short distance left before they reach the end of their run.
And now for the fifth and final shot, 260 has completed its run up the canyon. The locomotive has been cut off the train, and the crew handed her over to the hostlers who will be in charge of getting 260 ready for her trip back to Oroville. A pair of F units will take over the train for the remainder of the trip. Meanwhile, the crew has a few hours until the arrival of the westbound freight that they will take back down the canyon, so they've headed off into town to find some lunch.
