It's somewhat typical for a branch line.

Let me just say that I'm really enjoying the images of industries in this thread. The craftsmanship looks absolutely superb.

Is that "Boxcar, cattle, 40 ft Single livery" similar to the one Michael Stephan produced some years ago? I've often wondered why livestock cars aren't included in RSC's standard stock pool, especially since there are three varieties of British examples, including one that claims a mooing sound. If memory serves, Michael's cattle car didn't come with a load, so I hope that this one will.

The teaser images of this route look simply great and I thank you for keeping us in the track circle.

Just a quick FYI for those of you that have been asking what's going on we are all beta testing scenarios. The route is essentially done other than a few tweaks here and there.
