KEWL!
nice shots…if you scroll fast, it almost puts the train in motion…nice pics
Nice pics. I like what medic_15 said, it really works!
Noah
Thanks! By the way the route the shots were taken on is the “Bridge Line” (Delaware & Hudson) and its at www.mapleleaftracks.com (worth every penny).
Nice pix. You really need to reduce your camera’s FOV setting. Try something like 25 instead of the default 60.
Thanks! BTW the camera view isn’t default.
" Awesome dougal " , Looks like I’ll be doing some shopping real soon. Thanks for the web site info. Do you have any other web sites like Mapleleaftracks to share with us for the MSTS. PS; If you keep this up Model Railroader will probably start a new photo contest for the MSTS. Ha Ha Ha…

Whoa! “Thank You” dougal.
Hey Dougal, as far as train-sim.com goes, could you give me an e-mail to help me with a problem. I’m trying to download some stuff from there site, specifically the WSOR GP38 (heads up Ken) but I can’t get it to work on the directions they give me. I’ve never downloaded anything from any site before for MSTS, so if you could help I’d really apreciate it.
Noah.
Dougal, I’m glad to see this activity at this forum, the other USA forums are like animal rights activists at a slaughterhouse. The only other forums that have this kind of comaradry are you-know-who. I’ve been trying to empower our modellers to this effort, (thanks), and it takes the very last place on earth to present this, but, nobody listens to me! Anyway, Know, I get pic files off your efforts, and am an avid sim fan, also an NS fan, so, keep up the great work! ACJ
OK, first, do you have anyrhing that opens Zip files?
Mark, you left out www.trainartisan.com . Also worth every penny.[:)]
Here’s some of mine
Santa Fe’s Chief hauled by ATSF 3751.
The Chief again, with 3751 blowing it’s whistle for a grade crossing.
The Super Chief.
The first two pictures were taken on the ATSF Raton Pass II route, available from www.train-sim.com The third picture was taken on Marias Pass, which comes with MSTS.
Bigboy,
All I see are little white squares with red Xs in them.
Dito to YNCS Jonathon.
Dougal, yep, I sure do.
Noah
OK, now open another window, go to My COmputer / C Drive / Microsoft Games/ Trainsimulator/ TRAINS / TRAINSET and move the engine into that folder.
okay then what comes next?
I think the pictures are on a yahoo:
http://us.f1.yahoofs.com/groups/g_11930809/Chief%201.jpg?bce7p8ABmvam2l3u
and if you take out the last bit inncl the ? you get the message:
You do not have permission to get the requested URL from this server.
So forbidden, I think Yahoo does not allow this kind of linking to pictures on their servers.
