A pair of brand new RW&A EMD SD9's taking a loaded train of iron ore to the docks.

The small town has never seen trains pass through that are this long, quite a sight for the people

At the end of a long day of running these beauty's are a little thirsty!

I have yet to run the route - too busy with work, but in the meantime I am seeing all these wonderful screenshots.

All the little Easter eggs, and attention to detail is excellent. I have to say that at $15 it's a bargain.

Well done - I can't wait to get some time to try it out.

Evening comes early in winter, as a long coal train wends its way west . . .

Preparing for second attempt to spot coal hoppers.
Distracted(texting, non prototypical of the era) driving during the first attempt caused the engineer to back the loaded hoppers off the end of the siding! *!embar*!
I love the challenge of backing the loaded hoppers up the steep incline BTW! !!*ok*!!

I'm really enjoying the route so far. Not sure why, but I'm getting "Stinky Creek and Cheeseman Pacific" vibes from the RWA, probably because of the mine branchline, and overall scenery. I'm very impressed with the RS1 and the freight cars, as well as the great framerate.

Oops! Looks like the color positions are wrong. Or are they supposed to be like that? I don't know !**duh*!!
Even though a little color position error the route is one of the most scenic routes Ive played. Thank you!

If the switch goes straight the top is green and bottom red, if the switch is turned the top is red and the bottom is green. Looks like the switch is straght so the lights are right. Hard to tell though.

I remember Burma-Shave. These are from Route 66, between Kingman and Seligman AZ.

The turnout points in the screen shot with the 2-head color light signal show a straight-through alignment. Throw the switches and watch what happens. The color light signals are correct and they display properly.

There are several web sites featuring Burma Shave jingles. The one on the signs I made ("If harmony is what you crave then buy a tuba Burma Shave") is one of my favorites from personal memory.
