Goes something like this: "At 4 hours 26 mins, 'Donner Pass' is the longest scenario ever created for Railworks."


Hmm. Now there's a challenge. I've made a couple well over three hours, but the challenge in those is staying interested enough to keep testing them... it's not fun when the last there orders are broken :P I'm pretty sure I could build a 6 hr switching scenario, sound fun? lol.

I wonder if RailSimilarities voxel snow could be adapted as a child - not sure it'd be a terribly good effect when it's moving.

From http://www.railsimulator.com/

Donner Pass out on 24 November:

November 24 is Thanksgiving, and what better time of year for our biggest release ever – the 140-mile drama and majesty of Donner Pass: Southern Pacific!
Set in the early 1990s during the later days of Southern Pacific operation, Donner Pass: Southern Pacific is the longest route we have ever created for Train Simulator 2012, and puts you in the cabs of 5 different Southern Pacific diesel locomotives (including the SD40T-2 Tunnel Motor) as you test your driving skills on this demanding route. Running from Roseville Yard, CA to Sparks Yard in Reno, NV, the route takes you high up into the Sierra Nevada range and along the infamous Donner Pass itself, complete with its tunnels and snow sheds and of course magnificent scenery. With hours of driving pleasure – and a few tough challenges along the way – Donner Pass: Southern Pacific is a ‘must-have’ for all fans of North American railroading. Available from November 24.


Right in the height of the Steam Thanksgiving sale hopefully!

I Sure hope they do a Rolling stock pack or a locomotive pack for this route they would make alot of money off that alone.

Since there's a new thread started about this route since it's release, I'm going to lock this one.

Edit 1: Above link changed.
