Hi guys. this is my first contribution to the Simutrans community that has not failed. My Pak 128 Australia is permanently shelved at the moment as I have no time to work on it. Feel free to make one guys. Anyways I have started working on a recreation of the North Western Railway (NWR)/Sodor Railway which is mush less time consuming. Enjoy

oh well.
anyway heres a list of the locos i will be using. SG only. NG line will be made without any locos for now. More locos will come as I move further away from the original non CGI series
Thomas LB&SCR E2 class.
Edward Furness Railway K2 or NER Class R (LNER Class D20)Henry LMS Stanier Class 5MT 4-6-0 (Black Five)
Gordon LNER A0 /A1

the ones in bold are not in Pak 128 Britain so if anyone can find them it will be appreciated. If not then suitable replacement will be found from the pak eg. using a LB&SCR E1 Class for Thomas, L&YR Class 25 for James

Vicarstown have relocated slightly more north to align with Henry's Tunnel. the route is not entirely accurate as I cannot create fine curves.

Henry's Tunnel is not enitrely accurate. the western side should be accurate except for the hill which should be a very gentle curve or straight (according to the tv show). The eastern side is not shown in the tv series. The route maps show the train gently curving towards vicarstown which is not possible in simutrans so I have made it a straight line
update
Main line mostly finished. just need stations, sidings and some fine tuning. as i am stuck in china on 3g internet. i will not be posting any pictures. I will return to Australia mid february and hopefully a video will emerge if i can get fraps to work with simutrans.
