I was piddling along placing a highway that will be 30 miles or so contiguous, alongside the former Milwaukee Road line near Fairfield, MT and had no problem. My terrain settings are 1-2-2-3 which I fiind give me the best visual appearance of a cut or fill. Then I came to this location where I initially inserted a 500M highway piece and got this odd terrain shaping for it's entire length. So I did an "undo" and put in a 100M piece and got the same result for 100M. Note that the top of the fill is a good 2 meters above and 3 meters to the left, of the highway piece. Any thoughts? This has not occurred anywhere else "yet". There exists a railroad at this point which is either a BNSF branch or a shortline. It comes in from the northwest to Choteau, the next town on the line and extends to Fairfield and if the number of visible grain bins means anything, it must be a good operation. In the Milwaukee Road days some of the track near Great Falls on this line was either GN with Milw track rights or vice versa which is also why the mileposts change a time or two.
