Stone Mountain
Hickory Hole or Hickory Holdings
Cinnamin & Liberty

When you decide to do a real route, consider doing something close that you're familiar with. Unless you just love doing web research, building a route that you haven't seen in person is harder and might cost $$$ for books or maps.

The route's looking charmingly lovely so far ... and the Connie looks quite at home on it !!*ok*!!

P.S. (for Hertsbob)
I'm not really Spanish, I just live in Spain *!lol!* (and no, they don't call me Miguel here, thank goodness, although they do use a wide variety of pronunciations of both Mike and Michael .... the things I have to put up with!).

Great Northernor actually built a lot of smaller city buildings like that. I can build some more but not sure when I might be able to get to it though, because I really need to finish the E1 and finally get it into the sim.

Here's a picture of his buildings that are available at his website.

Yes, the 2005 Peterbuilt wasn't available in the old truck pack because it's one of my newest, as well as the other three Peterbuilts.



Also, if you like you should try to repaint some of the trucks for use with the route. Also would love to see some of my old buildings repainted with graffiti.

I don't like the bright yellow stripe. It doesn't look right. My small internal OCD is getting the better of me.

Looks great, needs something on the nose, either some stripes or a logo....or both to add some variety!

Why not a mini stripe like what's on the back with the letters GT for General Transport.

Thanks for that! !!*ok*!!

Or I may sit elsewhere, never knowing you.
But if fate should mark me to sit by your side,

I dont think it will look like that in TSX mode

Well for one thing, I can't use TSX! And the stripes from the bnsf demo from peters font would do fine on the nose.

Don't have a BNSF demo, I believe you mean Mdurdan.

I've decided that I'll build some small town buildings special for this route. Is there any kind of vintage style building that comes to mind like the style you want for the route?

Any progress on the route lately.

At the moment I'm recovering some more of my textures, but once I finish I'll start on some more buildings.


Also, I have some trailer homes I made about a year ago, I'm going to update them to Railworks 2013 standards and go ahead and get them released back to the community again.


...P.S, here's the first of my old trailer homes back in the sim. It won't take me long to update these, once I finish them I'll release them back to the file library again...

I think it's looking great now though, no more glowing during the day.

Just finished these tonight, have uploaded them to the file library and they should be available for download tomorrow. Some have night windows and some don't so not every trailer in the trailer park is lit up at night.

I think these will look great on the route.
