Yeah, I gotta get me a copy of that Sacramento Northern route for RailWorks (or whatever it's called this year!) And Tim, that's very cool about the contributions to the Western Railway Museum. I used to live just down the road from there in Fairfield, and always loved visiting and riding around on the trollies in their great collection!

I've got seeing WRM on my bucket list. That and visiting Orange Empire RR Museum. All the museums! :lol:

Flobert, L&PS still has the ability to astound me! It will always be one of the best MSTS routes in the universes. :thumbup3:

Taken just yesterday.

Wayne put so much effort in just planting all that grass! Wow!

Beautiful shots Tim - I remember well the early days when Wayne was developing the route, coming across his screenshots on his website - the level of detail was inspiring.

Wires and grass - now there's a thought...or just grass :)

Yes Tim, I totally agree. The L&PS is one of my favourite standard gauge routes. By the way, I really appreciate the contributions you make. The sreenshots of you, Rod and the others in this thread are just breathtaking!! :sign_rockon:

Thank you Florian :)

Great photos all. Some traffic "under the wires" from across the Pond - Liverpool to Manchester Line...

A few from the other side of the country - approach to Newcastle from Scotland. 2014 - Class 91 in special livery to remember the fallen of the First World War.

A last under-the-wires set from across the Pond - North of Liverpool, at Preston on the East Coast Main Line...some time in the late 1970's or early 1980's
