Back story (please be brief): North Eastern Rail Works presents the NERW PA Division Route
Version 1.0 - Released 15 January 2012
About the route:
The NERW PA Division route is fictional. It is not prototypical either. The DEM data came from about 20 miles below Pittsburgh PA. The rest is fictitious except for the New Wadsworth area which is slightly modeled after Wadsworth Ohio. Many liberties were taken here. As you will see there are a lot more signals than on a prototype route, this was done to help AI traffic negotiate the route better. In yards it also lets the engineer see which way the switches are set. It is 50 miles long and there are many industrial sidings and Passenger stations for making a variety of scenarios.
This route was started in RW1, transitioned to RW2 then RW3/Train Simulator 2012. It is now only playable in RW3 as new RW3 specific items have been added, lighting, track uneveness and a new skydome thanks to Great Northerner.
Work started on this route in June of 2010. Over 19 months 2,400 man hours have been applied to it so far...
