Oh boy, that brings back a lot of memories!

Great to see you are still working on it. Marias Pass is an exciting place with a lot of action going on, I especially like the region between Conkelly, Whitefish
and Kalispell.

What time frame do you set your route in? If it's an older one, I might have some objects for you from my MSTS project of the Hi-Line sub. Though a few of the objects' prototypes, especially the depots and elevators, are still around today. Well, just drop me a line when you get there and I'll see what I can do. Currently, I already have a few GN buildings and objects in RW. Already published are the GN speed posts (though I think BN or BNSF got rid of these) and an elevator (though from the Butte Div.), still unpublished (but already in-game) are the Shelby depot and engine shed, a steel trestle span based on GN specs (larger bridges, like on the Pass) and an old section house that might also stand in as a flagstop depot.

Cheers and please do keep us informed about your progress.

Hmm Kevin, I strongly recommend you not to paste all decals into the route at once.
Too many decals could lead to a crash of the route if you are editing it.

Either complete the section that already has decals or if you only what to lay the tracks of the route delete the decals that you temporally don't need.
I don't want you to go crazy because a crash and then a part of you work is lost.

well if you constantly save like i do you shoulden't have any problems with crashes, especally if you are using a high quality computer then you will rarely have crashes on RW. this route will be really fun for running all of my BNSF rolling stock along with my BN rolling stock!

The issue with lots of decals is they take up a lot of memory. Plus, your only working in one spot at a time anyways.

Guys i know that all.I´m just placing at the moment many decals cause i want that you see all the beutiful mountains and not just painted ground.In 40 miles come i out of the mountains then it go trough the desert.There i dont need to paste many decals.So if you have a good pc, all will perfekt work

[bnsfsubdivision]

WOW, you are shure FAST at this, the project should be completed in no time!

[micaelcorleone]

Wuhuu. You'll ned a lot of adjustment on the terrain.
But I face the same problem on the Feather River Canyon. Some terrain sections are very wierd, some others perfectly match the rail.

[bnsfsubdivision]

yeah this will take long but i´m sure it wont be complicated.Hope i can start tomorrow laying the tracks
