On the excellent CN Vegreville/Blackfoot Sub.

Ok, lets be honest, you don't get much of an idea from these shots, but it is truly worth downloading. Excellent route, plus activity and stock packs, all available from Mophouse.

Some of the best attention to detail I have seen on a "standard" route. Not to the same level as WPFR, LPS or Tim's PE, but very enjoyable to fire up (and I have now got somewhere decent to run all the CN stuff that I have downloaded over the past 2 years :p - plus a bit of CP track thrown in for good measure.

Night textures, good vegetation and depth to the scenery.

I'm happy...

I like shot number 2 the best - a plausible viewing angle, some interesting texture in the forground, all images and textures right on, the silhouette of the grain silos - a very nice shot!

Thanks Wayne - I agree on #2, though I like the approach to the grade crossing in #4.

There are plenty of those, just not on that part of the Blaine Lake Sub leading into Denholm.

You folks deserve some nice weather... Winter has yet to come, it's still fall here. These screens are making me think that I should change my sig to this one..
