Trainz: Dry Brook & Esopus Valley Railroad #2

1:15 11ft8 bridge xD

[@TrainGuy33]

If you want a great asset, the back shops has old/abandoned NYC style signals. I think they would look great in your city!

[@Kmaster2007]

an idea for the abandoned segment of track: make the track twist around a little and the track go up and down, because PC's track usually was very bad and siting without maintenance for 30 some years would displace it a lot.

[@TheVk3tom]

Love backshops too

[@RileyRailAviationNTrucks]

Thank you for making these videos! I'm about to buy trainz a new era and I hope to be sort of good like you! Thx for inspiring me!

[@apoundofapples2963]

Great stuff man. Everytime I watch a video, I seem to find myself getting back on Trainz and doing a little work hear and there to my layout.

[@jarroddark8560]

The route is looking good so far Joe. i love the whole route

[@M1chael42O1]

oh my lord! as soon as I saw him fly over to the abandoned crossing signals I knew exactly what he was going to do, I knew he was going to give them a shoutout cause he said it on his discord, but it was so obvious it was the abandoned crossing signals! why didn't I see it coming!?

[@Dirigo207]

Thanks for the shoutout to the Backshops, I think you made LTG's day with that lol

[@ltg3646]

yeah yeah, well. I work my butt off on this stuff so its great to be appreciated.

[@nickb.1095]

Great video! Brilliant idea with the roads. I think I will do the same thing whenever I think I should. Mainly in industrial areas and in certain parts of cities is where I think I will do that most. Loving this series so far!

[@SergeantC2]

I do like the look of your city areas. I'm looking forward to further videos in this series.

[@robbleeker4777]

I see quite often those big rubbish containers standing on the side of buildings....I do see you using those....

[@tristschannel5611]

Looks better with every episode!

[@JohnnyJolt]

Dude you need to do a master class. This is great stuff!

[@D_4_N_]

man, those splines really got reticulated

[@CorziFa]

[@linkscarlet9094]

For the texture spline, us the JS texture right next to the JS texture spline. Those match up pretty well.

[@railroadmillion681]

Can’t wait for the next episode.

[@josephbennett3482]

Man I'm so surprised that you don't build your own real life layout although I know they are very expensive to make I have HO Gage models and they are a bit expensive. But you could also join a model railroad club and build insanely amazing layouts.

[@tehangrybird345]

Once again love your routes your routes are so inspiring

[@milepostonemedia6868]

This looks very nice, well done

[@vandelayofficial492]

man, coming from Cities Skylines its really cool to see the similarities between them in how things like this are built. Great video!

[@truckman63]

Ive always heard that the white line is the fog line, but great video man and i wouldnt be afraid to put down small trees we have a line near us that hasnt seen traffic in 7 or more years that has 5ft pines growing on them and the company as of last year (that the branch serviced) has paved over the spur. But just food for thought.

[@ohiorailfanproduction5436]

Wow you’re incredible at route building

[@Mason9468.]

For doing roads on an angle you could use a blank road spline with whatever lane marking splines you want just put on top. I’ve uploaded a couple onto the DLS you might be interested in; search YARNish L2 BL. It is a fully blank version without any markings, which could be what you’re looking for, although other versions are available with varying amounts of markings . Simply put them down and sink them into the ground a bit (since YARNish roads default a bit higher than I’d like) then put on whatever markings you would like. It would provide a clean edge for the road while still allowing you to do custom road markings.

[@emmittbunn181]

awesome video

[@ToddReuterOutdoors]

Hey Approach, did I miss the P&B release? Did I miss a video?! Man I hope not! I was still waiting on the 15 minute P&B cinematics only video! 😂

[@ApproachMedium]

Didn’t miss it! Release and video will be very soon ;-)

[@Chasingrail]

Lol why didn’t I see this till now? Great work as always?

[@groggers]

really love your intro am!

[@Sambro333]

In my opinion, the two abandoned boxcars next to the switcher engines don't seem to be the same scale as the rest of the rolling stock. They look much smaller and that's kinda distracting.

[@NotMattyDYT]

You should add some sort of train yard or like engine facility

[@cedarvalleyrail8419]

You should try some sort of Northwestern themed rout next time

[@Uboat65]

I cant find those road lines anywhere on the DLS or on a search of the KUID online, can someone point me in the right direction?

[@robbleeker4777]

Also.....A nice MOD would be of old rusted abandoned train wagons and/or locomotives

[@HighballHank]

Very nice! That CSX Switcher doesn’t really fit in though.

[@M1chael42O1]

he and a few others are working on engines for the DB&EV railroad, before i left his discord i saw a couple people who came up with some concepts

[@enzoeatstrainz8967]

Nice!

[@robbleeker4777]

It may sound stupid but can you do a tutorial video on how to use the tools that are available to you in this game.? Obviously you have been working with it for some time, so I see you navigate trought the buttons really quickly.. It is a bit hard when you try to look what things you are pushing and see the effect straight after..

[@embeddedt]

Nice video! Just curious where you got these road marking splines from; I checked and it doesn't look like they're on the DLS.

[@jaredg4519]

You have quite the eye for detail, which is why these routes come out looking so good! I have a question about traffic in Trainz. Is there a reason that some routes can't spawn cars, even though the region spawns cars on other routes without a problem?

[@jaredg4519]

Well this problem occurs even with supported roads. This issue comes up in Driver Mode.

[@long5243]

yay

[@IllinoisCentralVideography]

Aight imma make a a class III gravel transfer rr

[@ApproachMedium]

XD

[@carolinarailfanning]

Nice can you drop a link and tell me other required objects... for the finished route.

[@Chasingrail]

Where do you get the JR building from at the top right at 6:48? I can’t find it anywhere

[@St.LouisMadeNike]

💯💯💯

[@haydennorthcutt367]

Hi, I was wondering if you could tell me where you got that RS-1?

[@ApproachMedium]

That'd be a JR model.

[@haydennorthcutt367]

Approach Medium ok thanks!

[@zphotography7305]

If you don’t mind me asking where do you find the moving cars in dry Brook because like what are they called are they missing dependencies that I have to find or are they in the dependencies folder with dry Brook im almost done downloading the whole route I just haven’t seemed to find or download the cars

[@npnorthwindsub4193]

I love your D&EV RR vids and is the P&B coming soon on JR?:)

[@BenandMylesMom]

Where did you get those old railway cross bucks at 17:41?

[@BenandMylesMom]

nvm found it and got them

[@TheLisahinrichs]

You should pot an abandoned car on the tracks

[@petermiddleton1694]

Far out!

[@Sys-Edit0r-1995]

Is there anyway to get the picklists you use?

[@robbleeker4777]

You not playing Cities Skyline at all?? That game seems to be quite similar to what you are doing here

[@brentsprints]

Does this route work in TRS19 or just TANE? Thanks!

[@thatonemk6gti2010]

Where can I get the road markings?

[@jdtractorz7760]

Where did u get Felix_g's road markings? I can't seem to find them anywhere on JR or on the DLS... Are they not released publicly yet?

[@ApproachMedium]

They’re on the DLS I think as JR RM or something

[@Unknown_Bread]

Where did you get the out of service crossing? I didn't find it in the backshops

[@ApproachMedium]

I’m hosting them on my website now. Www.approachmedium.com

How do you convert a .zip file to a .cdp file for Trainz: A new Era?

[@ApproachMedium]

You don’t. You have to unzip the file

[@mb_rock0342]

Approach Medium I’ve tried that... both .zip and .7z won’t go into my content manager

[@herbie2017]

What scale are your routes?

[@mb_rock0342]

I went to The Backshops' website and I can't find it on their website...there isn't much on their website at all.

[@trainman7616]

Because we are still new. Weve only been up a couple months. The crossings are under misc in scenery

[@mb_rock0342]

trainman7616 Thanks for the info! I found the crossings, but when I try to download them intro Trainz A New Era (I have SP3) they won’t go into the game because Content Manager says it is in a “unsupported file type”... why does this occur?

[@trainman7616]

@@mb_rock0342 are they listed as a .7z file extention? If so you need a program that can open a zip file, we have to zip them because it compresses the sizes. 7zip can open the file.

[@mb_rock0342]

trainman7616 on the website, they are not listed as .7zip files... the only option is to download as an html file (at least for the abandoned crossings) and when I’ve tried to download other .7zip files from The Backshops Content Manager still won’t download them... i don’t know what I’m doing wrong...
