NS Fostoria District(WIP)

Unread postby NS9030 » Mon Oct 22, 2012 4:00 pm

Well this is the first route I've tried and been remotely successful at so I may release this one. It will go from Ft. Wayne, IN to Fostoria, OH(And on to Bellevue if I have time). This route will require SMM's NSAND and his houses, signals, and scenery items except the mileposts. It will also require Portland Terminal, HSC(Sorry but I couldnt recreate this accuratly without them), Greatnortherner's Wild West Houses and barns, and 3dtrains scalerail and road(I think this is the freeware version). It will pass through many famous railroad towns such as Leipsic, OH and Fostoria of course. There are a lot of industries to swich such as POET Ethanol in Leipsic and Fostoria and Protec in Leipsic plus the interchange with CSX in Fostoria. There are long passing sidings but most of it is single track. Also anyone know where I could get some Corn models and truss bridges(cleared for autoracks, TOFC, and Doublestacks)?

Sounds awesome DT&I. I might have to get Portland Terminal sometime soon. I always like NS stuff for Railworks.

NS has always been my favorite, plus NS runs a lot of heritage units down this line, so far they ran the NKP, LV, CR, and Original NS down this line multiple times. Unfortunatly/fortunatly I only saw the NKP(#1 favorite IMO).

Some of your items that you will need might be a bit hard to get.. like SMM Digital's products, he no longer has his page up but I think one of the admins here maybe might have his work, not sure, but I think I read it somewhere here. The other items you need like from HSC, and Portland Terminal won't be to hard to get.
Hope the route building goes well! :D

Thanks! Papaexpress has the SMM assets so you could ask him for them if you want. But yea this is taking forever just to get out of Leipsic. Protec is huge and so is POET and theyre taking some time.

Thanks! Its still a long way to McComb and thats only about 8 miles east of Leipsic, but that above would be L70 which will return to Leipsic and drop the hoppers off at the recently completed POET plant.

Working east towards McComb where the NW used to cross the B&O branch to Findlay, the built a cookie factory over it so the town smells like cookies lol

Not dead, had crash awhile back but I've restarted and now am in McComb in the East and I'm just west of Continental in the west. It's too bad we don't have bracket masts but then again NS is taking them all down *!sad!* . The one at Mortimer might have to be substituted with a cantilever.

To be honest I didn't think anyone else lived by this line *!lol!* let alone was interested besides UPSD70ACe lol
