For the heck of it, I Google Mapped the location of the route, and where the track runs down the center of the street under the large bridge was identical to what RSC is making.
They matched several buildings and churches. The only thing they left out was the clutter around the houses and yards.
I'm looking forward to this route. !*brav*!

Looking forward to this one. While it's set in PA, the scenery looks a lot like my area.

I was doing some thinking about this route and the freeware route Montour by Rich S. Both routes have one company in common, CONSOL energy but for the Montour days it was CONSOL coal or commonly Called the Pittsburgh Consolidated coal company.
A little history lesson.

Is any ex-CR/PRR de-electrified trackage in this route? Seeing PRR poles without wires around PA and Jersey turned me interested.
