I have finished this route. With the help from my friends it will be uploaded on this site soon. I thought I would give everyone a little info on this route. It has sharp curves in this route, Diesel Engines run fine but large Steam engines will not. I tested several of them and they derailed. But there are a decent amount of Steam engines that will work. AT&N Consolidation Class 280-157-RSC Consolidation Britkits 2-6-2 Prairie and the 2-6-0 Mogul. Any of his logging engines and USRA 0-6-0 and 0-8-0 switchers. Their are probably more but these I know will work because I have them. Except for the logging Engines. Here are some YouTube Videos I made tonight. http://youtu.be/ac7T9tjCP-Q http://youtu.be/Ge3mZycsxAA http://youtu.be/ibQKrG6lYuo http://youtu.be/R_5HAwoM3sw I hope everyone enjoys this route.

I want to thank Buzz for his beautiful Engine and Passenger car repaints. And Bob for putting them on this site and uploading them. Here are some videos I made today after Buss's passenger car was uploaded. The first is Engine number 64 returning to Fort Bragg from NorthSpur after a summer run on the Skunk Train Route. The second is number 64 using the Y to turn the passenger cars around. And the third is number 64 backing into the Fort Bragg Station getting ready for another run on the Skunk Train Route. http://youtu.be/xZ8blBWgdB8 http://youtu.be/ta5AySEnta8 http://youtu.be/kgB_7xq0ODw

Great job on this route; it's going to be one of the few freeware routes coveted by those of us who live in NorCal.

I wanted to give everyone a little update on the route. Buzz if fixing some problems with making scenarios' for the route. In the beginning when I started the route I used two track rules. I know now that was wrong but I did not then. Buzz was having problem in making scenarios going both directions. He is trying to fix it but he has his own project he is working on. I am hoping the route goes up soon but I cannot give a date yet. For the purists out their I added coal refueling stations for the steam engines on the route. The real steam engines on the real Skunk Train Route use oil but that wont work for the steam engines on Train Simulator 2014. I am adding some screen shots of the coal refueling station at Fort Bragg.

A little correction. Bob is working on the fixes not me.

[dleeboy]

Sorry my mistake Buzz. For everyone that reads my last post I messed up I meant to say Bob sorry about that.

It'll be a great route to run, I'm sure of it. In 2010 I worked on the Noyo River, but never had a chance to get on the train. Doing so in TS2014 will be a treat. Now I need to go get RW Tools (the license mind you) and start crackin' on the NWP.
