Kingsport Options

[jane]

I have just re-discoverd this wonderful route. I found the phu_hawk update helped frame rates.  It is I reckon a prime candidate for a template Norman, and look forward to running coal trains through the Pocahontas-Clinchfield-Kingsport-Bluefield system. Ewald Kuenze's Kingnoso activity takes some setting up - I reckon 40 cars not 90 for the player consist as that must be a clearing train.

Unless a revision has come out recently for this route, it is not possible to make a template for this route.  The industry and yard tracks are not properly marked. 

I first looked at this route more than a year ago, hoping that it would be a candidate for a template.  Unfortunately . . .

Ty for reply Norman.  Do you have an email address for Jerry Sullivan? From train-sim forums I know he does reply sometimes and a template would greatly lengthen the lifespan of his creations.  He was an employee of the CSX and his work is special.  The set of err ...5 routes here (with blueridge) are worth saving as a unit that can be upgraded and run together in the future and provide small size additions such as the Cedar connection and various branches that are good for newbies like my family to try building.

I do not know how to contact Jerry.  And I avoid the t-s forums, although I do frequent the t-s file library.  If the route is revised I will consider doing a template.

I have found a recent email address for him and will send a respectful email.
