I think this merits an eventual scenario for the TSC route. Who's with me? !!howdy!!

Quick question where do I place the route markers?

I just got done with a couple of hours of free roaming this route and I have to say I am just plain blown away at the great job Mike has done capturing the essence of this area. Even though I was a fib for many years I spent a lot of time around this area in cheese head land and he just has nailed it. Five stars for this offering. I await some scenarios being written however in the meantime I will keep exploring and enjoying. **!!bow!!** !*YAAA*!
!*cheers*!

Thank you all for the continued feedback! I fixed a few more issues in version 1.2 today. I also added a crossover track near the SOO Oshkosh Depot so that trains can bypass the depot without being forced to use the Oshkosh Yard siding.

Just a few shots from today. I don't normally post these helicopter shots but this one was too good to pass up.

Now I don't know whether CNW SW1200/NW2s operated around Oshkosh but I bet that Green Bay might have seen the odd one or two. There are a couple of SW1200s in the RWA library (using Britkits SW1200), there aren't any NW2s but there soon will be using the Britkits payware NW2.
Now I apologise in advance that I have compromised a bit here as in order to get dynamic numbering I have had to put the cabside lettering where the number should be as the numbers come up where the lettering should be. Until I figure out how to re-position the number decals ............
There are two folders one a clean NW2 and another dirtied each with 34 numbers.

That CNW Division was a stronghold of Fairbanks Morris H-10-44's. The Milwaukee Road was same. It would be nice to have more Fairbanks Morris equipment available for TSC. Trainmasters / Baby Trainmasters were also quite common in that neck of the woods. I think it was because they were "Beloit Built".
Take Care,

Thanks for the info Stephan, not surprising really as FM being local. A complex machine for switching :D

Another CNW offering and now I need to finish South Kaiser & Trent Mountain route so I can go onto W&W.

Alcos probably more at home in Huron but.....
Again the number is where it is but I thought that dynamic numbering better than spot on accuracy?

Link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/n6exqhobgnhkd ... ts.7z?dl=0

Repaints are of Britkits as they have 4 digit numbering. I would like to use the Diesel Workshop version of the RS3 but only 3 digit numbering.
CNW had a few 3 digit RS3s but most and all of their RSD4/5 were 4 digits.
