Good afternoon, hope y'all have a good Thanksgiving holiday.
As the title hints, another Chicago route will be starting. I'll be working on this route in addition to the other route (so I'll be switching back and forth).
Here is a pic of the project freshly imported into Trainz a few days ago before I took some time off to spend some family time.

Its been a long time since I've last posted an update.
This was mainly due to being busy with real life things so Trainz was the least of my worries but today I'm happy to share an update.
Since this route will use the same station setup that my Harvard Sub uses (link to webpage here -
https://www.hiawathamr.com/payware/larg ... r-edition/ ), I figured why remake it when I can simply copy it? There have been some issues that will require replacing all of the trackside objects but at the end, I think it'll be worth it.

And here is the line that will eventually be attached to downtown Chicago

Finally some time to work in Trainz.
Some trackwork and roadwork has been completed along with the terrain a bit. The west end will have a staging yard and a portal for those that wants to setup a few freight trains to run.
