Special Op Session

Soon I will be posting a video of Q453 in Trainz with the exact power it has today: 8730 and HLCX 7190! I'm getting pumped for the real deal tonight.

Trainz on Hold a little bit!

Progress on the Tampa Terminal will be on hold until at least I finish some homework and this LEGO commission I have been charged with. I might sneak a TTUS video since I did a little last weekend but otherwise, things are on stun. I believe next Friday I might afford an hour to further develop the Lake Wales stretch.

CSX Homestead Sub 05.09.2011 - Malfunctions and Manifest


Two things you don't see everyday: Crossing malfunctions and AC44s pulling 4 cars. ;)

I must say, this is one of my favorite day outings.

Coming Right Up...

Tampa Terminal Update Show Episode 2: Never before seen areas of Winter Haven and a couple of lakes. These lakes are huge and it's an aid to the need of getting your route done quickly.

This episode isn't narrated because yesterday I was feeling bad, but I did manage to record it.

Route Updating Schedule

Just wanted to showcase my plan layout for this route and when an area is completed. From the very beginning I set the mid 2013 window as when it should all be ready.

The Fun of Trainz

One sentence tonight; screw up your placement of the Winter Haven FMID transfer track, and you can retexture and relay it, no harm, no foul.

[Requested] How to Set Up ATLS Crossings in Trainz (Part 1)

I am doing a two-part how to special series on how to program an ATLS crossing since it has been quite requested by many. I overlooked a stopper which is not complicated at all, but configured the channel to work. This is the LCM Tutorial which uses LCM Mode. As I get to doing the Traffic Light tutorial, which will be more complicated, I will apply the ATLS Traffic Stopper. I did this crossing up in a win-win situation; I win by progressing further in my Tampa Terminal route by making one of the crossings (Now guess which one!) and the viewer wins by learning how a crossing can actually work. The same will apply for US 92 in Park Spur.

The video is NOT titled How to.... (Part 1) because Part 2 is Apples to Oranges with this one. Part 2 we go for the complicated stuff. Look for that tomorrow.

Trainz Tampa Terminal Update Show

It's a new endeavor I am taking on YouTube. I'm showcasing my updates of the route.
