I can guarantee that the tracks won't just cut off at the ends of the platforms, but as far as what else is going to be included... That's anyone's guess.

!!**sorry**!!

Well I can guarantee you that Fullerton will be in the route, but as far as whether your sister-in-law's house is going to be included... That's anyone's guess. *!!wink!!*

*!!thnx!!*

That'll be a $20 "sister-in-law's house" add-on after the route is released.
Oh, and another $20 for the "sister-in-law's house with outdoor Christmas lights" reskin pack released two months later. !*roll-laugh*!

Hey guy's. I've just been informed that the Environmental setting's for this route will be locked. Yep. Apparently the weather option will be set to foggy by default, if you think about it....that's actually a pretty realistic setting! !**duh*!!

I disagree with you. It is not realistic.

I second that!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_layer

The marine layer is common on the California coast. Burns off in the morning hours and comes roaring back around dusk. So having this route locked with fog is not accurate. We get tons of clear sunshine on the coast by mid-to-late morning. *!greengrin!*

The air's a lot cleaner here than decades past. I haven't seen a smog alert in ages.

Yeah, actually we should get all the normal weather options. They have it all during the year along coastal California.
Winter has some very stormy weather with heavy rains, intermixed with clear days and ground fog and the marine layer.
The marine layer doesn't always burn off though. When the weather is cooler the marine layer can stick around for days.
I'm from up north in the Bay Area and used to hang out in Half Moon bay, so I'm quite familiar with the high fog's habits.

Slick with Pretty Rainbow Colors.

That does look good - very good. However, we don't see much lightning in So Cal - maybe a couple of times per year if storms happen to move over the San Bernardino Mtns. *!lol!*
