Tori"s Gem C&O

Holy.... at first glance I thought it was a picture!

Thanks. Here's another. CSX loaded coal train N661 (CLIFTON FORGE - WHEELWRIGHT) rolls through the area around White Sulfur Springs:

I really enjoy this route. Just noticed the telegraph wires don't line up, but I'm just nitpicking

Could be the AA settings in game or in your video card driver options. That screen with the bridge could be a picture!

BTW, where did you get those Chessie skins? I really like that livery! (yes, better than modern BNSF) Thanks!

Inspired by styckx in the "Any Route Any Era" thread, I tried my hand at my own sunset shot on the C&O with various runthrough power (sadly no triple monitor wide screen goodness):

Cool.
I hesitate with buying the APH pack cause I hope the Technical Update with it's new illumination system will create equl skies.

Chessie, that sunset one is going into my "collection". When my family and I move to Oregon, we plan to build a train hobby room with an N-scale. To decorate the walls, in addition to some shadow boxes of my rr memorabilia (Dad's old books and badges and stuff), we plan to blow up and frame some of these nicest RW screenshots. They look like paintings when blown up and printed on heavy artist paper. That one's a beaut! And, it depicts a scene I have witnessed many times (standing up, not lying in the coal dust and without the NS loco, lol).

p.s. Uhhmmm, pardon me, but isn't that loaded coal train in that other pic going the wrong way! LOL We haul coal OUT of WV not into it.

A heavy coal drag over the Alleghany Sub with diverse CSX power:

(Thank you bobbel66 for the repaints. .)

[Toripony]

Thanks for the screenies! How was the drive?

Did you change out your tracks? Just curious... the ballast is much darker. Do you have the payware version of ScaleRail?


Tori

[micaelcorleone]

A great run, thank you Tori. (As always on your fantastic route.)

No, I didn't change the tracks, at least not deliberately.
I use the normal freeware version of Scalerail.
