Hi Randy!

Your route is really superb!

Here are some shots of an activity I'm creating: Rattlesnake Regional. This is a new regional service from Berkley to Los Angeles each morning.

However, I've got some problems with TS crashing a few meters after leaving Berkely, so I have to find what cause this... So there is only shots in Berkley station.
A shame that I don't own the Pacific Surfliner route, as the Amtrak California coaches woud have fit very well to this service...

Hope you like the shots

Paul

Hi Paul,

I like the shots of the activity you are creating for this superb route, unfortunatly I haven't the brains or skills to create activities.

I hope you can sort out the problem, and also hope you will make the activity avaialable for us lesser mortals.

This is not meant to criticise, as Rattlesnake looks very good, but in all the pictures I've seen, I've yet to see any people in the shots (except for those on horseback) It gives the Route a slightly empty feel or is it just me.

No one walks in america trust me there aint many pedestrians and hardly any passengers on the railroad's because theres normal 2 trains a day on the dessert type stations, the amount of detail without people is facinating im suprised i can run the route.

Good evening folks!

I've solved my problem with the activity. It seems that at 0719 AM, the lights of the cities turn off, and that makes the sim crashes. Not sure why, but it is the only explanation I found. Anyway, the train is now leaving Berkley at 0721, so it should be ok.

Here are some shots of this train. It is already pretty warm in the Rattlesnake desert, and there are a few freight trains on the line.
I'm not sure about the kind of carriages I may place in the sidings of the station. If anyone has some ideas, don't hesitate to give it to me!

I hope you'll like the shots.
I can release the activity when I'll finish it. But the problem with the american stock is that it may be difficult for other people to collect what I use.

Anyway, here are the shots.
