The Brakevan looks like an ex-LMS 20 ton one to me..have a look on UKTS, sure there is one.

Fantastic!

Is this your first route Chris?

Hi

Its the first prototypical route I have atempted, although I have made about 10 fictional ones before, although I was never happy with them. I have now been working on this route for exactly 1 week!

I have just downloaded a lot of Michael Sinclair's sounds, so expect to hear lots of birdsong, swaying trees etc

The loco did visit the line last summer in NCB livery.

I'm astonished at your speed of progress

Hi David

Given that I haven't tried route building since march last year, I spose I am going quite quick

Well, as there's little point in slowing down, here's more proof that I haven't slowed down yet!

These three screenshots show the Foxfield from the area of Blakeley Wood (a small wood on top a raised area of ground which the railway goes round in a large semi-circle), looking towards the colliery.

This view shows the line leaving the exchange sidings at Blythe Bridge, and heading up the 1in40 towards Caverswall Road, which is just over the hill in the far distance.

This view shows the bidge over the exchange siding line, with Caverswall station on the ground visble through the trees to the left.

This view shows Caverswall Road looking in the opposite direction about 500m further on towards Dilhorne Park Station, and as you can see no station trackwork has yet been laid.

And lastly a view of a nearly complete area just outside Dilhorne Park on the line towards Blakeley Bank and Caverswall Road.

I hope you like these screenshots, and please feel free to comment on what I have done, good or bad.

(one more thing - as you can see by the yellow pillars I have already started putting sounds into the route, such as birds/sheep/cows etc however I have had difficulty finding a british sounding cricket, so if anyone could make me a sound source for a british cricket, or could direct me somewhere I could get one, then it would be very helpful)

Hi

You've already replied to this thread, and your tone in your first one was not nice. It was an easy mistake to do, so trying to put him down with 'im just a 13 year old' is neither appreciated or welcomed.

(I am 15 myself by the way

)
