Finally a CN route! I'll start saving money.

Milepost Simulation's two published routes have impressive features such as mountains and canyons, but lack a finishing touch for scenery. They need more vegetation, clutter, etc. Rivers need work. Definitely not on par with the WIP routes we see here daily. I wish he would team up with a "finisher".

But they are fun to operate as they offer a good challenge.

I also wish that they would have given us some new CN engines.

Why don't you post in the re-paint section if you want something?

Nice! CN route to add to my collection. Will be nice to run some CN power for a change.

I agree with your assertion about lack of detail.

Looks great - being on the prairies myself it's nice to see a route that is closer to home.

I wish it would come with a GMD1 - it would be at home on this line. Perhaps someone will make one for it later.

Agreed, it’s very cool to see a CN route being done. However, it’s disappointing to see the ancient Kuju SD40-2W being reused.

I personally would have liked to see an ES44AC or something like that included.

Actually, I'm cool with the SD40-2W, it's one of my favorites, especially with roinuj's weathered repaints.
Ian's SD60F will also be perfect, also with roinuj's weathered repaints.

Of course, Alco C424s would be perfect...

that awesome there going to be an cn route. but sound like there going to be just one locomotive. why doesn't DTG let milepost simulator also add sd70i from bnsf pack as well in to the route. yes i know there sd70i cn repaint out there. but still i think it be awesome to have more then one locomotive in the route.

Is there anything on this Earth that some of you can't find to complain about? Contact Milepost or DTG if you have a suggestion. Griping about on here accomplishes nothing.

CN...very exciting!

Interesting choice for a route...very isolated.

I think it's about time that we got a CN route. The SD40-2W is appropriate - I've seen some videos of the route since they announced it on train-simulator.com and all the clips I've seen show the SD40-2W leading freights. Haven't seen any newer power like the SD70i in the clips yet.

Don't know how I feel about running a 40 mile route thought - I prefer long haulage routes like Donner Pass or Marias Pass, but at least we get CN as a standalone route now instead of just loco DLC.

in the left hand side of the screenshot there is a CN St Charles caboose! Always had a good opinion of these 'booses.
