The base of the cumulus clouds is way too low. The adiabatic lapse rate in Utah would never support that much instability. Atmospheric thermodynamics in this sim sucks! !*not-ok*!

The canyons are just breathtaking. I am unsure if the tanker is realistic/prototypical though.

No, looks like full cars of rail just spaced out with some 6x6 planks every level up. Very nice touch adding MoW equipment though

I wonder why they chose to use the new SCL caboose to represent a DRGW one when their old wide vision cab would be more appropriate?

Maybe because they knew that there are already a couple of DRGW paint jobs for the wide vision in libraries?
