It doesn't say anything about geo restrictions, since it is BNSF??

Note: The Montana Hi-Line Route will be available worldwide. Due to licensing restrictions, BNSF markings will appear only on content distributed to U. S. customers.

Thanks, must have overlooked that sentence in the long article.

Getting the proper reporting marks is probably just a matter of renaming some textures.

The route is not a DTG product aside from the rolling stock, which will finally be available worldwide to those who couldn't buy the BNSF DLC previously. It's coming from the VNH and G-TraX team but will be sold on steam store. Will the ex-BN GP38-2 from Stevens also be included?

I did not find anything referencing Marias Pass, but this is an extension of Marias Pass, isn't it?
But I may be wrong because the Shelby yard can be in both routes.
Anyway. This route is a must have. !*brav*! !*brav*! !*brav*!

I think this is an independent route, but if I'm correct, the starting point is the same as Marias Pass, so the two could be marged.

When announced a few weeks ago on this site by Michael he made it all clear that this is the sub to the east of Marias Pass route. The thread is BNSF Hi- Line Havre- Shelby posted first on October 10 complete with map.

As I have these locos in the BNSF livery which I got before the restrictions I imagine that I can replace them using RW Tools.

The problem I see here for the new route to be an extension, is that Havre-Shelby route and Marias Pass, both have a yard in Shelby.

Besides, I don't think DTG will want to market the Montana Hi-Line as an extension (at least in the title), considering they had to remove Marias Pass from the sales markets outside USA.

These are two separate routes and I believe it has been stated that the two will be able to be joined together. You will not need Marias for this.

The signage will be available shortly after the route comes up. This will be kind of like The Race Track (hint).

Yes, Buzz no need having two threads on the same topic.
