It's just a giant junction to celebrate the longetivity of the game...or whatever.

A fitting tribute!

No.... it's not a "fitting tribute". As you posted, it's just a giant junction, nothing else. It has no bearing on 10 years of Locomotion. I can't see the point.

At least throw him a bone.

@Zacos: I don't see the point of that remark either, best keep on topic.

You really are an arrogant person sometimes.
If you don't like something, can't you just keep your mouth shut and move on?

@304 001: Not if I feel that I have an opinion about something. We are all entitled to that. No malice was indicated in the post that you mentioned.

Then why do you always assume that my posts are spam or self-promotion and that I'm not just expressing my opinion?

Zakos and Greyfox - Another topic derailed by your pettiness. Stop the nit-picking or go elsewhere. Simple.

I've been playing the Tehachapi landscape, slightly modified to represent Colorado mining.

This first photo is the smelter complex, located at the base of mountains where the railroad starts it climb.



Photo 2 is a small mining complex located on a ridge line above the mainline.



This last photo is a large mining complex in one of Colorado's "parks," or large valleys.

Here's my attempt to celebrate Locomotion's 10 year anniversary, a little late I know, but it took me longer than I thought.
Over 244 vehicles in one picture, so yes it is Photo-shopped. As you can tell, I favor North American loco's.
Most of the loco's are from the Mega-pack and the Dekosoft packs. I've got to give a HUGE thank-you to the MODers who made this picture possible, and who kept Locomotion alive for 10 years and counting!

@glenjimen: A brilliant effort to recognise the 10th year of Locomotion. Well done!!

Cheers.

What do you mean by Oil wells by EDS, do you mean that you have used my city-version of the oilwells ?

@Utrackbuilder_loco:

Cool looking map Utrack, lookin forward for more screens ! Is there a possibility that you can share that map like with all of your other maps ? I have played a few of your older maps, but this one sure looks nice !

Congrats !

Yes,that is what i mean by Oil wells.They are a masterpiece!

Here are some screenies from The Lake District by Zimmlock.It is a piece of crystal!

Here's two more and a lol moment:

Aww, you took out the trees They make the map look better IMO.

Do you have the invisible version of the boundary marker?

Yes on both.

Thanks to Zimmlock for sharing the Lake District scenario - it's kept me busy for some time now and I finally completed the challenge this morning. I made several mistakes along the way, crashed a number of trains and will have another go at it soon improving the way I lay things out to try and get the trains running smother (I have a nasty habit of putting inclines in the most awkward spots)

A few screenshots from the final layout:

Thnxsss , but you should really thank Chris Sawyer for that, he made those oil-wells, I simply turned them into city-buildings, just like the windmill, coal and iron ore-mines...

Well the first version of the Faith and Hope Railroad didn't go according to plan, a bad dat caused a permenent crash around 1950, thus rendering the original game a waste of time
I reworked the dats and added in the U25B's from the Rock knowing that they would be an utter pain with low reliability factors reflecting their rl counterparts most of whom went for scrap as they were pretty much worn out by the time the Rock finally went under.
It's so far so good and I will add in some new screen shots to show the games progress to date

It's winter but still the trains keep running

Merry Christmas to all
