This is my first MSTS video. The route is a WIP but covers a reasonable area.

In order - Clips taken at Tarlee, somewhere near the Sturt highway, Saddleworth, and the rather ancient Brennan grain siding.

That route honestly looks fantastic. Almost photo real.

The route is looking great. Some 900's on it would top it off.

Er could you enlighten me as to what WIP means.
Brain fading a bit these days. Laughing

Both Vids look very good, Saddleworth looks okay.

"Work In Progress" of course. Rolling Eyes

I meant to say Manoora, not Saddleworth. I should have known as my younger brother was in the per way there in the 70's.

Anyway the route's looking good.

John

Anyone like another video of this route?

Very much delving into "Salvation Jane" territory now

Always happy to see another video.
The earlier ones look very good, and it is good to see your progress on this line.

Here it is

Sorry about the lack of driver's view. There were a few sound issues that didn't sit well with me

Thanks for the updated movie, didn't matter about a driver's view.
This route is coming along very, very well.
The important part is the route looks like how I remember the area in the 50's 60's. Even the purple Salvation Jane at Mt Bryan. Well done.

One can see your putting lot of effort and eye for detail into it. Top marks.

Regards,


John

John said it all very well, lots of detail and realism.
Just makes you think you are in the Mid-North on a warm summers day.
Can almost smell the Salvation Jane (Achoo, damn hayfever!).

Good news - I have obtained reliable information on two sticky areas in the suburban portion of the route which will put a few insecurities to rest and hopefully make it more accurate for the period.

The high temperatures here over the last month have slowed progress a bit, but I am optimistic it will be in beta within about 3 months. If it takes longer, that's life

Do not rush it, take your time, for it's worth it for the end product.
