Powder River Basin

[Tomcat]

BoostedFridge has released his first scenario for the Powder River Basin. You can grab it here;

I know I'm totally biased but it's now one of my favorite scenarios. Many thanks to BoostedFridge for creating this scenario that serves as a great introduction to the PRB.

Agreed with you about the scenario that Boosted Fridge created. Look forward to see more scenarios from anyone who will create.

Stage 3, in 2 or 3 weeks, will be catching up on scenery rather than any new track. There is now basic scenery all the way from Donkey Creek Junction to Newcastle on the Black Hills sub and I am currently filling in scenery between Coal Creek and Reno Junction on the Orin sub.

A few screenshots of newish scenery placement on the Black Hills Subdivision. The Powder River Basin, being in or near National Grasslands, results in the main asset being grass, as these shots show.

Thank you!



FYI; Stage 3, in addition to more scenery, will also fix the boo boo I made that caused some assets to go missing. I don't remember the exact count but it was around 15 or so paths I had to fix that affected one of the coal hoppers, several water assets and a few signals of which 2 were at the East end of Moorcroft and a dozen or so that were on the Orin sub.

Wyoming never looked so good.....

Thanks Roger!

If you get a chance you might want to check out the episode on Wyoming in the Aerial America series on the Smithsonian Channel, not a bad way to spend 52 minutes.
