Toronto RailLands 1954

[kbr]

This evening I was working on trying to complete the CNR Transcontinental activity on the Toronto RailLands 1954 route on time (in TRS2006). This is a rather difficult activity as it is on a very complex track system with a very complex train. Keeping the train up to speed, especially near the end of the session can be a real challenge. I still ended up 12 minutes late, but that's probably my best time yet on this session. ;D

Good Job Kevin!! It's a lot of work keeping these old steam engines running at an optimal performance. I always find it challenging running the steam engines... 12 mins. That would be a LOT better than I could do I'm sure.

Thanks, it is difficult finding the right mix of coal, water and cutoff to keep psi up without wasting the available resources. If you look closely at the last picture, you'll notice the coal car is empty. ;D

Excellent job Kevin, those Rail Lands are a maze!
Just throw all those passengers overboard and the coal situation should take care of itself.

Thanks, I hadn't thought of it that way.
