New! Extension Project Started!!!

Yes, as most of you know, the release of the RMGNGRR was a beta version! So, lately, Jonathan and I (K36487 aka John) have been adding to the route. So far, bugs with the old version are being fixed, plus Jonathan has laid enough track to DOUBLE THE SIZE OF THE ORIGINAL ROUTE!! Included are new cities, mines, small towns and scenic areas, It's out with the old and in with the new!!! A map is below.

Woah! It's been so long since an update was posted! Don't worry, the route is in its final stages before uploading...just doing final touches. This route is what I call "super detailed," and why it is taking so long!

OLD (version 1) NEWS: A newer version, with updated scenery, sounds, and other additions will be available soon...

Here is the Narrow Gauge Route K36487 (John) and Jonathan are working on. It uses 3 ft gauge track for MSTS. The is route is fantasy but some places are based on actual places. Such as the main city is based on Durango. It has a main line which runs through "Durango" to the Green Mounatin Transfer Yard. From there 2 branch lines take the rails to the mines. The main line continues the opposite way from "Durango" and goes through a narrow pass. Along the route is the Red Mountain Gorge, similar to the Animas Canyon on the D&SNGRR.

Jonathan did the track laying, and John is doing the scenery. (For our E-mails, look at the bottom of this page.)

Here are some pictures, more to come!
