Yes and this faith I take every precaution by safeguarding all night.

here is the real line:

For the moment I am satisfied with the first 12.5 miles and then if I am satisfied I may finish the line up to strong bagg .

As far as I’m concerned I’m going to do it in semi-real view as the line is no longer open on its full length, I’m going to let my imagination work to make a few steam or diesel freight to choose from.


You’ll have a newline no matter what, I promise.

After Montana we will go to "California by zawal"....


Tchou tchou..........

This looks fantastic! I've ridden the line a couple times as a kid. I can't wait to traverse it in TS.

So glad to see you back in the game (literally) Zawal! I must admit, I was genuinely devastated when I read on RW Central that you were leaving TS for good. You've kind of become my idol, a route builder beyond compare who I aspire to someday be even half as good as. And this new project seems like a step ahead even by your high standards, an absolutely gorgeous masterwork that looks like it could be set anywhere between the 1870's and the 1970's, from the heyday to the near-death of American railways. Thank you very much for sharing your work once more. I hope we'll see more soon.

I'm amazed at the skill and perseverance of route creators but you've taken this art to a new level. Looking forward to running your latest route. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you for your comments, it means a lot to me.

To open a little parenthesis , I did not leave TS but only the French community , I may be French , I find that they are too demanding , they ask too much and never sound happy , or my departure from the French site.

To continue:

A lot of work still needs to be done.

A few screens of Northspur and its surroundings.

I still have a hard time seeing what’s in some places because of the vegetation on the line, but I’m doing the best I can.

First off, I'm glad that you are continuing to enjoy TS, and route making!

The entire Northwestern Pacific rail line, and this area in particular is very scenic and has a fascinating history.

Good morning, everyone.

I arrived in Northspur , starting from Sage Spur there is an hour to 30 miles an hour on average.

I think I’ll give you that part already , August has just started and the holidays for some of you too , it will occupy you a bit I think.

Here is a series of screens taken a bit everywhere on the line.

I did it by hand, all the textures are laid by me, I prefer to do it this way even if it’s longer, I think it’s better.

Hi all

Welcome to the California Western Railway!!!

This is the first part of the Skunk Train.

For this part you will travel from Northspur to Sage Spur for a total of about 20 miles and a duration of one hour .
There is no scenario but you still have quick drive provided with the line.

You will find the line under the name "California Western Railway".
Later I will update and you will then have the full line.

Good trips to California

Here is my drive for the line:
