Hi to everyone,
I have been away for quite a while. Over 2 1/2 years ago I was hit by a nasty PC virus that just about ruined everything in my PC and external HD. At that time my son was dealing with heart and kidney failure and Train Sim seemed unimportant. He is now waiting for a heart and kidney transplant. I didn't know my 2014 PRR Template was no longer in the Template list. The PRR Template was the only thing I didn't lose because I had it stored on an online storage site. I also received a copy from Harlen in this forum. For those who are unfamiliar with PRR Eastern route it is the largest route ever made. It took 10 men 6 years to create. It has 4500 miles of track, 2400 sidings, 87 yards and covers 3 Divisions and 5 Railroads (PRR-B&O-CNJ-LV-RDG). I want to add to the Template Package with some new ideas I have come up with before I repost it. It now has 115 templates and I want to add 5 to 10 more. Right now it has very large files, Activities (.act, .Pro, .ctp, .cvs and .tdb)-576, Consists-171, Traffic-121, Paths-336 and Services-786. When ready I will send a screen shot and a link for downloading it. It will be a complete Mini-Route with everything except the Valley Pass Payware. You will need the PRR 1950 set, the PRR#3 set and the Troop set. |

Hi to all,
Work has started on the PRR Templates and am happy to share shots from the first two templates, one of them is a first for me on this kind of template. The first template focuses on the WB mainline non-electrified line between Altoona and Marysville. However, I have included both the Harrisburg and the enormous Enola Yards as starting points for Westbound runs to Altoona. At both yards, the activity starts entering both yards with GG-1 electric engines and the user will have to swap engines from Electric to Diesel. The replacing diesel engines that will replace the electric ones will be along the main path to allow this exchange. From there, the rest of the run to Altoona will be done on Diesel power. The only yards allowed to pickup/setout cars along the run will be at Marysville, Lewiston, Huntingdon and finally Altoona. I have taken a lot of time to add low-poly strings of cars to have, to a certain point, well filled rail yards at Enola, Harrisburg, Marysville and finally Altoona. As it will be tested more deeply, I may proceed with adjustments if necessary. Here are the shots from the first template: PRR2image60 by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr PRR2image61 by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr PRR2image62 by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr PRR2image63 by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr PRR2image64 by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr PRR2image65 by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr PRR2image66 by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr See next post for details from the next template -------------------- Denis Gionet
