Railworks America

I just wanted to inform you about the upcoming release of "CAJON PASS: BNSF RAILWAY’S CAJON SUBDIVISION" by 7ideaproductions.
Preview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2rEg4mZTzE&feature=channel_video_title

As we have this route also in Railworks, I think it's interesting to see how it looks in reality and how it has changed over the last years:
The tunnels are gone, BNSF now has a tripple track mainline.

I can really recommend 7ideaproduction videos. I have several of them and they are all great.

It would be interesting to see how accurate RSC.com gotten Cajon Pass.

It's fairly accurate, however, the route is not in it's modern state. The tunnels are still there in RWs, and it's not triple tracked in the in the pass. The one thing that stands out to me is the color differences.

If I'm not mistaken, RS.com did not develop the Cajon Pass. It was developed by a 3rd party, but for the life of me, I can't remember who.

Wasn't it one of the payware vendors that did Cajon Pass for MSTS?

Rich Garber did the Castle Rock Railroad for RailWorks, I think it was the early RSC guys who did Cajon Pass.

Cajon Pass was initially an US version of Rail Simulator, which was also a addon to the European version. Then RailWorks came along and combined the two.

I'm thinking it was 3DTS, but I could be wrong.

it was 3DTrains who converted their MSTS Cajon Pass into RS/RW

Was it 3DTrains or 3DTrainStuff? Two different folks.
I think it was 3DTrainStuff.

I think so, too.
3DTrain's only route was the Feather River Canyon.

3D Train Stuff started the route for Rail Simulator. It was, however, finished in-house.

Thanks for that clarification Marc.

Update:
Cajon Pass is now shipping worldwide on BluRay and DVD for $29,95.
