Hi, I guess I should feel somewhat embarrassed in asking for a template for FPM's Pacific Surfliner route but I still believe it to be one of the best most realistic routes available. I would love to see a template for it so it could reach it's full potential. I have (secretly) talked to others who agree it is a very good route and who admit using it late at night with the curtains drawn and the doors locked. As a former Amtrak Engineer, Zone 1-A, I can attest to it's performance - it's got the most realistic feel to it. I had to wait a year and half with FPM having my money before the route was finally delivered but that was years ago and I have enjoyed running passenger and freight trains across it for years. A template will help ensure years more of enjoyment. PLEASE make a SURFLINER template.
Thanks and here's hoping, RD Barchfield (aka - hoghead) Southern Pacific Railroad Tucson Division Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers (and Trainmen) Division 28 Tucson, AZ Amtrak Union Depot El Paso, TX (disabled) |

The problem with creating a template for this route is a lot of the sidings aren't named. I'm having trouble getting around that. I do hope to create one one day, but I am not sure when. I am currently working on a tempalte for the PRR route by request. Thanks, Steve -------------------- Steve Davis
