Hi
Thanks for the kind words of encouragement.
Its very early days in the RE for me, so it really is appreciated.
And thanks once again to Derick Joy for allowing me to use the superb P2P route as a base.
Its one thing adding scenery, but another laying track.
I take my hat off to route builders, I wouldn't know where to start.
Cheers
Jon

Thanks Dave and Terrone.
Its early days yet......... but I won't pack up easily.....I think MSTS has life in it yet.
Current plan (which may get cut back)is to do the following
Penzance (Long Rock+ coach sidings)
Westbury (North and South yards, FP)
Exeter (FP and a few miles of Waterloo route)
Bristol BR
Didcot
OOC
Swindon (FP)
Reading. (FP)
Plymouth (Laira)
Newton Abbot (FP)
St Blazy (done but might re-do)
The 3 big quarries (for stone working)
Some work alreday done at Westbury, Frome and the B & Hants mainline.
Paignton including the Steam railway to Kingswear (which is already superbly scenerised by Derick)
Cheers
Jon

Jon, that looks wonderfull. One of the best routes I have seen for a long time. The scenery is remarkable, real depth to it. I look forward to thrashing a good few western region diesels.

Hope you complete all the work in your current plan - what a great route this will be then, it's already one of the best.
