Post by 749006 »

Wilbur Graphics Retro Canvas Route is now available from Trainworx for € 24,95 (aprox)
https://www.mersel.nl/product/retro-canvas-route/
The Retro Canvas Route has been built as a fictitious line of the Dutch National Railways (Nederlandse Spoorwegen, NS), representing the years around 1990, with a strong bias towards driving pleasure, both for the eye and the mind.
The infrastructure is characterised by concrete sleepers and colour light signals.
Apart from some sidings all tracks have been fitted out with overhead lines.
The surrounding landscape and city buildings will create a realistic impression.

The route comes with a variety of Dutch & EU rolling stock:
NS 1100, NS 1700, NS 2400, NS 200, NS 500
Volker Rail V100, SSN 23 023 met ex-DB A/Büm stam

I'm afraid it really isn't the best looking loco, I've seen it in other screenshots as well.

While I enjoy the previous route by Wilbur Graphics for it's very classical Dutch atmosphere, the graphics aren't best and the simulation of the trains is very basic.

Still, it's got everything in one package, which is nice.
