Hello to all,
I have started a new template project. This one will involve two routes. It happened twice before having two routes for a template project. The first was the SLI DRGW Green River with the Potash routes. The second was with the CONN River and Springfield Terminal routes. This one will involve the North Coast Railroad (NCR) route version 3.2 with the California Western Railroad (CWR) Route (available at the Elvas Tower web site). Both have the Willits area in their routes. In addition, for this occasion, I have created new repaints and renumbers for this special project. The timeframe is set in the first half of the 90's during operation of the NCR Here they are: Two Arcata & Mad River 44-tonners in their original numbers 101 & 102: AMRR 101 & 102 by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr Two CWR GP9's with their original numbers 65 & 66 CWRR 65 & 66 by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr Six NCR GP9's (4 original numbers and two fictional recently patched NCR) and Nortwestern Pacific #1922 in its original number (although this real-life repaint has been done later in the 2010's) North Coast railroad pack by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr Two fictional 44-tonners for the Pacific Lumber Company (PalCo) with their original numbers (The real engines are actually 80-tonners) PalCo 101 & 102 by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr I have already finished putting the markers on the NCR 3.2 route, now reaching Ukiah. The previous version (3.1) reached only Willits. The TDB file has been extensively worked and I have ran the entire route to put the markers at the appropriate position and given the proper attributes to each serviceable siding. Once the templates are finished, will start working the same for the CWR route. Will try to post some shots as it progresses. -------------------- Denis Gionet

Hi to all,
I am happy to confirm that all the templates are now done and are being tested as well as working on the readme file for both routes. Sixteen (16) templates have been created; Twelve (12) for the NCR and four (4) for the CWR. This week, I have uploaded all my repaints (5) to the trainsim site which will be required among the downloads to run the templates: 6 NCR Geeps, three A&MR 44-ton switchers, one NWP number 1922 GP9, Two CWR GP9's (number 65 & 66) and finally Two Pacific Lumber switchers (See first posts above) Here are the templates for the California Western route: Two for EB and WB runs. One for switching between Ft. Bragg and the Georgia Pacific Lumber plant. The last is a MOW run between Ft. Bragg and Northspur and return back. Here are shots from the EB run CWR1 (1) by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr CWR1 (2) by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr CWR1 (3) by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr CWR1 (4) by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr CWR1 (5) by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr CWR1 (6) by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr CWR1 (7) by Denis Gionet, sur Flickr The next set of shots ( next post ) will come from the CWR MOW Template -------------------- Denis Gionet
