Rochelle Railroad Park

For those who remembered, I posted an hour long railfanning video of my old Rochelle, IL map back in early 2017. I recently upgraded my computer and wanted to recreate this sentimental park which I have gone to since I was a little kid. So far this is what I got:

Definitely gonna change up a few things texture-wise, I'm just trying to get something into the game. The asphalt came out a little too dark.

Scenery packs used:
Rochelle Railroad Park Scenery Pack - Airbourne (me !*YAAA*! )
Raton Pass - JL

I'm gonna try to keep the amount of packs to a minimum so I can throw this in the library.

What I'll be working on next are powerlines, finishing the RMU warehouse building texturing, foilage, adding houses, leveling terrain, adding signals. Got a lot of work ahead!

A recent update. So far it's coming out better than expected. (headlights are photoshopped btw)

I agree with Firexplorer249, looks really good.

I drove 700 miles to see this place. It did not disappoint!

I flew 4000 miles in 2008 to visit Rochelle, Galesburg and Joliet, never to be forgotten. I was lucky, I saw both of the Dash 9s then the last in CNW livery.
