Thanks Edwin!

I don't think I'll tire of the project. I may suffer burn out now and then, for a time, at certain tasks but there is always some other aspect of the route to move on to.

East of Guernsey and approaching Fort Laramie marks the start of roughly 100 miles of farmland before reaching Alliance.

Helpers thunder away pushing 128 loads just getting into their assault on Crawford Hill.

Later on, just cresting the hill, the quintet of deuces on the pin of the loads show a bit more sign of life as the helpers have let go and it's all up to them and momentum to finish the job.

That's some sweet power! I love some Santa Fe but I do have a soft spot for BN.

A bit of work around Belmont on the Butte sub. Next phase release coming up shortly. I didn't get as much scenery done as I had hoped but what the heck.

Powder River Basin: Phase 6 Release


Added approximately 50 miles of track that includes the BNSF yard at Guernsey. About 25 miles of scenery has been added, split between the Orin and Canyon subs for the most part.


If you are new to the route then you need the following three files;


1) PRBRoute.rwp (1.91GB) *REMOVED*

2) PRBAssets.rwp (237.65MB) *REMOVED*

3) PRBRouteUpdate11292019.rwp *REMOVED*


If you have the route then you need only install the following file;

PRBRouteUpdate02212020.rwp (153MB) *REMOVED*


Note: Tehachapi Pass is the most important dependency by far.


Dependencies are;

Payware:

Tehachapi Pass (Majority of the route is from this dependency)
Soldier Summit
Sherman Hill
Steven's Pass



Freeware:

RCAP from Railworks America. http://www.railworksamerica.com/index.p ... =22:models

Pipeline lofts and Coal Mine Conveyor from Golden Age of Railroading. http://golden-age-rails.com/rwscenry.html

Eléments de raffinerie from *REMOVED* Under the Objets tab you'll find refinery assets under 'Eléments de raffinerie' for download. It's a 3.3 MB file - easy install.


And as always many thanks to the freeware creators;

EMDSD90MAC
SMMDigital
John Lippai
Great Northener

and the payware providers;

3DTrains (Marc Nelson)
G-TraX
DTG
