I like the look of this route and love that picture in the loading screen!

Thanks for giving the shout out about the LM166. It was a lot of hard work and it's a great feeling seeing it on someone elses route :D

2 questions,

1) How did you do the loading screen, and

2) Where did you get the pipes to go under the track from?

thanks,

Hya Chaddockdk,

Regards your 2 questions referring to the piping and the loading screen,

1. The pipes are from the the Isle of Wight Add-On from RSDL's site.
2. The loading screen was created by a lot of trial and error but here is a link to The Train Sims Forum were i found some information about cracking the loading screens http://thezone-reloaded.co.uk/community ... topic=83.0. Hope this helps if not get back in touch and il see if i cant try and do a step by step.

Cheers,
Dunk

Very nice work! Love the first screenshot at the station and and the last one of the Network Rail train at the crossing especially, is it me or does that HST seem to be clagging a bit more than usual?

Hi,
Posted screenshots looking good, I have spent a bit of time leaning on the fence in first shot waiting for trains to arrive.
Remember to have a bus at station to cover periods when line is closed for maintenance :D :D :D

Keepup the great work.
