Shelby is only an away from home terminal for Great Falls crews. There's also a road switcher based out of there.

Look at the route map in post 1 of this thread. It shows the route goes West of Shelby to Etheridge ( name obscured) a little North and South of Shelby. Rick and Michael are ahead of the game (more ways than one).

As mentioned by Michael and Colin, merging is pretty simple. Just a few things to change in the process. I may play with the idea on my own once it's out so you could do a full crew change point-crew change point run should you dare. I feel like it would be fun to stream it.

Michael told you which locomotives will be included in an earlier post. By way of clarification, all of them are standard DTG items except for the GP38-2 which was slightly modified for Stevens Pass. They all have the original audio and physics you've come to know and love. As always, we invite you to make any substitutions you wish, and to run Hi Line scenarios featuring your own favorite locomotives.

Note: Although the route has two Amtrak stations, no passenger stock will be included.

Many of the rolling stock items that were used on Stevens Pass, some with modifications, make repeat appearances here. Since there are no container terminals on the route, the well cars and articulateds are not interactively loadable; instead they're supplied in either loaded or unloaded versions. Containers will therefore show up in Quick Drive scenarios and, being "primarydigits" items just like dynamic car numbers, they will vary randomly. The Trinity 5161 cu.ft. hoppers make their debut in this route. Here they are at the Columbia Grain facility in Havre, waiting for you to load them.

This sounds awesome! Honestly I wish the ES44DC was replaced with an ET44C4 or with some other engine. I think we have enough BNSF ES44s.

True but I think 2 BNSF ES44DC is enough.
