I'm sorry that it's been a long time since I posted the last pictures in my journey - I meant to finish it earlier but real life had other ideas about that.

Anyway, we continue down the slope from the tunnel, round the bend and enter Brunt. This is a small village in the mountains, but quite a few people are excited by the arrival of the first train and have come out to watch.
The engineer takes a breather as the train waits for its scheduled departure time - incredibly, it was early on arrival! Yet more water is taken on to keep the steam locomotive running.

Not too much later, we leave Brunt and head for Barley Port.

Out of the tunnel, we descend onto some extremely twisty track down a very steep mountainside. The passengers marvel at the seaward view but the driver is having to be extremely careful round the tight bends and the steep hillside, as the track meanders along the contours. Up above, we can see an abandoned attempt at an over-the-top track: fortunately the board agreed to finance the tunnels to save the engines that struggle.
The construction of this mountainside line unfortunately did quite a lot of damage to the environment, with lots of trees cut down and abundant earthworks. However, Barley Port is so cut off that something was required - they did request the railway, after all!
We keep descending until the passengers suddenly have a beautiful scenic view of Barley Port.

We sit in Barley Port station overnight, before starting the return journey. Barley Port is a small and pretty town, but before now it hardly got any visitors or new arrivals - with the railway, it's sure to grow now!

Here are two other pictures as well from the return journey.

This is a premiere: NewStations v0.4, Alpine Climate (test version 0.0), DB set XLA and a E91 (a three-part articulated electric w. 2200kW and 300kN) together at work. The year is 1925.

Our company was looking for a new advertising campain and we invited the press for one of the fastest trains on our fleet. NR12353. We are heading for Tehill city. As we are leaving the city with the newly founded night schedual we have a pretty look on the neversleeping city of Winningley. The fist picture is ready and we are proud to show the picture to you all.

isnt there like train sim's where you load up with coal and send them to steel mill, or passengers to trainstops??, y not just start taking screen-shots of them, its much quicker, also, it would be nice to see a ttd screenshot of the train, and another 3d sim, with the same looking background

(I know im asking to much, but how cool would it be

)

those night shots reminded me of my story which i'd submitted a year ago. it's on the 177. page of this forum. i think the link of the 177. page is

You know what makes me most laugh? I see your story all that far back... And I see somebody complaining that you didn't put 3 pictures in each post. And still today, we have people complaining about that (to me, last week.) I ignore them now as you ignored them then.

Hmm, that old 0-byte attachment bug...

There are quite a lot of good screenshots in older parts of this thread, it's fun to look back at them (on a high speed connection!)
