TrainSimulations: Sand Patch (CSX Mainline Subdivision) Development Thread

[chilla]

Well I'm also one who would love a CSX version of the route but I have no complaints the route looks awesome it may not be 100% accurate to the era I want to use it for but that's where a little imagination comes in handy.

Yes, it's your Train Sim World, do what you want with it. Do that all the time, a good explain is the USA1A Route, running PRR era trains, not exactly right, but you get the feel of it.

Also typical of older routes, there were more sidings and spurs, so you just ignore the ones that aren't there in modern times.

Hey guys, Just to let you all know, the Sandpatch is also known as the Keystone Subdivision on CSX. I thought you all would like to know.

Or alternatively, run ACELA on the PRR-ER.

Will this route include ALL of Cumberland yard all the way east to Mexico Tower? Or just a small portion like MLT included?

That is still under consideration but most likely yes, trackage will extend to just east of Mexico Farms Rd.

Was wondering if there is any update on the route? Since all has been quiet as of late

[Erick_Cantu]

I imagine they will post updates when they have updates to post...

A long overdue update...

Some screen of the 10 miles in between Hyndman and Corriganville, MD. This area is relatively flat with lots of tangent track traversing through farmland and the towns of Ellerslie and Corriganville.

Hi Andrew,

Beautiful.

I know it's a team effort - but - that has to be the BEST route work I've ever seen in this sim. Love the farmland. I've bought other Train Simulations projects merely to support the cause - this one - I actually want. The first time we blow through Rockwood westbound - knowing there are many more miles to go - will be a hoot.

Don't forget the GE's...


Best of luck...

Regards,
Scott

Dense vegetation around the tracks is what I want to see the most in ORTS and this route has nailed it! I am looking forward.
