Hey all just A small sample of the route ive been toying with which is A few older routes merged together as you can see its not finished and the video quality and lag was caused by the recorder.

Very impressive Mac. It reminds me very much of my days departing London Euston in the early 80's and climbing the bank up towards the Roundhouse and Primrose Hill Tunnel. At times, further on, it looks a bit like the South Hampstead/Kilburn/ Queens Park areas in places. It's all changed massively now, I believe, especially Euston. Great stuff though. Keep up the good work Mac.

Thanks Dave most of the layout is pretty much a fictive version of the London end of the wcml with a section based on part of the Sydney railway slotted in between the tunnels just after the regents canal and Kilburn High Road then from there till Willesden Junction I will have to come up for some names for the stations since the route is fictional.

I'll try to get some clearer videos but the video capturing software always seems to have a bad impact on performance.

Redhen cab up till now.

Another good one Mac - you stopped a bit short of the stop blocks at the terminus though. The Traction Inspectors might have been coming to have a chat with you in my day :lol: (Only kidding.)

I don't want you to think I'm being critical - because I'm not - but have you thought about some tunneltrack in those tunnels?

Haha I very rarely actually drive in trainz and was driving with keyboard commands with the hud hidden and didn't want to de rail.

The tunnel track is something I'll get around to changing eventually and constructive criticism is always helpfull .

I think that looks very good. Obviously still a work in progress but it's very impressive :)

Hey everyone thought id let out a bit more detail of the route its A fictive (modelers licence) version of the wcml from Euston to Watford junction with a section of complete fictional track inserted just after the primrose hill tunnels if time permits it there will be 3 versions nationalization era sectorization era and privatization era .

The first version will be sectorization era the route will require some non dlc assets but there all easy to get and don't require registration
also there will be one sketchup building being Euston station also the route isnt one for long panoramic shots to keep it low end computer friendly the scenery wont extend very far.
