It’s not released yet, I do plan to hopefully soon, release a version 1.

I’m hoping to find some of those style WRRC cars but if not, I do have a guy who can easily make them for me.

What I’m shooting with here, is a DJI Mini 4K. I highly recommended this drone.

@@fathersonrailfanning let me see, I may have a clip of it from it back then.

@@spankyfuentes3502 I use a DJI Mini 4K

@@geomark8851 yes, the whole area around thrall was completely flooded. The town I live in just down the road in Thorndale was also heavily affected, and there is a photo from Taylor on what is now Old Thorndale Road. Where the flood waters washed out the road and pulled a house off its foundation.

@@PoubelleKansas yeah, it was some guy in the back of his truck. Some kid got on the road by the gate along with a car pulled up.

I grew up on a cotton farm about 100 miles south of Lubbock.

@@thetexasrailfan I’m going to try and start catching it more, when I get the chance.

Yes they were, the RS&S ordered the MP15’s with that scheme in 1975 and used them until the railroad shut down in the 2010’s.

@@texaseagletrains yep, they added it in Taylor.

@@scotabot7826 they run a train everyday Monday through Friday on these lines. The city of Austin & Cap Metro own the railroad but have a contractor do the work.

@@fathersonrailfanning I finally found out what had happened. So apparently the coal in this car was smoldering, so they derailed it and put it on its side to put the fire out.

Yeah, they leave Manor at 8am and usually arrive in Giddings at noon. They do 10-15mph the entire way. So it takes them 4 hours, but if you are driving from Manor to Giddings it only takes 40mins.

Did the exact same chase in the past week, thanks for the sub! Love when I catch this run, love me some slow moving shortline action.

For making prototypical, use the measuring tape in the game, and have google earth pro open and measure. That has helped out tons with getting the right distances. Other than that just play around with it and see what looks as close as possible.

Most of them are in the DLS, but the others are on the Texas State Shops.

@@Cab_Productions any certain year?

@@texasrailwayproductions5753 2022-Present Day

@@Cab_ProductionsI’ll look into it, I’m thinking of starting something new so I don’t burn myself out on the Austin Sub route.

It’s currently not available to the public yet. I’m still building it. Once I have it at a releasable stage I will announce it on here.

Yes, the plan is to release the first version when I get to a point I feel like it’s worthy to be. I do plan on adding some extra stuff later on, such as the SP’s Giddings branch line to Austin.

@@texasrailwayproductions5753 you should try and make a Dalsa Cutoff route for trainz

@@Twprailfan I may do that. Since I’ve got Hearne built and running it to Giddings I could extend it on another route for sure.

@@texasrailwayproductions5753 I’m here for it

Lucky! Around what time did they rip the bergstrom spur from the base and cut it at montopolis? I thought it was late 70-early 80’s. Modeled most of the bergstrom spur at one point but wanted as close to scale as possible, it was modular, and each of the three sections I broke it down to were like 26 feet long a piece and had to do off play 180 turns to continue the scene.

@@jwrailve3615 I think it was in the early to middle 80's when Bergstrom was closing. They were planning to make BAFB the Austin International airport. Most changes were made after I moved to Dallas in 1984.

@@gailyncookMilwRR them severing that line to the airport/base seriously affected future commuter train connections to the airport to south Austin and beyond because now so much has been developed the former ROW past montopolis is basically not restorable to reconnect back to bergstrom. I truly believe I saw the very last train on the bergstrom spur the very first time I visited Austin, they say it was OOS by 2001 but I swear it was at night a train possibly hauled the last cars still at the industries on the line off the bergstrom spur never to be used again and I believe that was in 06. It had to have been it because I vividly remember i35 above us and the hotel to the right of us, but who knows
