My first TRS19 route, created with Basemapz. This is a small HO scale route with lots of abandoned track and some industries. Based on a Model Railroader Magazine trackplan.

This route requires various track and scenery assets from JointedRail, The Backshops (TBS) and Trainz Pro Routes.

Originally released in 2008, Lots Creek Branch was creatd by TrainzProRoutes. It was taken from a track plan published by the Appalachian Modelers web site. It is a COAL HAULING branch line with LOTS of operating action. The revised layout now has small warehouses, natural gas facilities, and a junkyard; meaning small peddler freights can run this line, too. 

Version 2.0 now now has various upgrades, most importantly Hi-Res models from USLW, TrainzForge and JR, UltraTextures that change with the season, JVC grass everywhere, and SpeedTrees. Any missing content can be found from any of these creators, as well as the DLS.

Welcome to steel country. Here in the Ohio Valley lies 25 odd miles of railroad that connect Youngstown, OH and Wheeling, WV. Norfolk Southern hosts the River, Weirton, and Follansbee secondaries here. Primary commodities include iron ore, coal, cement, scrap steel, finished steel and garbage. This line was built by the PRR in the 1870s, and flourished until the Penn Central and Contrail eras of the 1970s and 80s. NS isn’t the only carrier in this area. The Weirton Steel Co. (WSX) is an industrial railroad moving carloads of steel products around Weirton, WV. The Wheeling & Lake Erie’s (W&LE) northernmost end of their right-of-way ends in Mingo Junction, OH, with several interchanges with NS. This route is designed for complicated train operations with multiple interactive industries, and minimal background detail to enhance FPS and game performance. Enjoy this little slice of industrial railroading west of Pittsburgh.

This route was built and tested in Trainz 2012, but should be compatible in both T:ANE and TRS19 as all assets are available via the Download Station (DLS) and JointedRail. All other assets should be built-in.

The NH&I Railroad is nestled 37 miles oustide Philadelphia, PA in Bucks County's premiere destination; New Hope, PA. The tourist railroad was created in the early 80's from an old Reading Co. branchline. The route is now owned by shortline Pennsylvania Northeastern, who the NH&I has trackage rights on. This route covers the excusrion trackage to nearby Lahaska.

Join us on an entertaining and educational adventure perfect for riders of all ages and interests as you journey through the hills and valleys of beautiful Bucks County. Relive the golden age of rail travel and take a front-row seat as you take in the passing scenery of streams, scenic farmland, historic buildings, bridges, and surroundings. On-board narration, provided on most trips, details the history and folklore of the railroad, the towns, as well as points of interest along the line.

Founded in 1952, New Jersey Museum of Transportation's Pine Creek Railroad is one of the oldest operating narrow gauge railway exhibits in the country. They purchased a 2.5-acre plot of commercial real estate on Route 9 in Marlboro Township, New Jersey, a few miles north of Freehold, and set about building a little narrow-gauge railroad using rail rescued from abandoned sand pits. After laying some track and constructing a small engine house, they began attracting other railroad enthusiasts willing to volunteer their time, and eventually they cobbled together a passenger coach and ran the railroad as an amusement attraction.

The museum had already been contemplating relocating to another location so as to expand their operations, but in 1962 moving became critical when, owing to a land reassessment, they were hit with a 300% property tax hike, which threatened to consume upwards of 70% of the museum's annual revenue. Unsuccessful in their bid to appeal their case with Marlboro Township, the museum finally found their new home: Allaire State Park in Wall Township, Monmouth County.

By 1967 the Pine Creek Railroad had come a long way: the station was refurbished, a new enginehouse was built, a Raritan River caboose was converted into living quarters for the resident machinist, the Railroadiana shop opened, a small diesel was acquired, and the Ely-Thomas Shay was running the loop, as reported by the NJMT Newsletter editor at the time, Theodore F. Gleichmann. Thanks to the efforts of many volunteers, the railroad has been in continuous operation ever since, and the Museum has featured an ever-changing roster of unique and historically significant railroad artifacts.
