[@strictoaster]

Wow, that yard looks epic!

[@kpen9764]

So whens the Trainz A New Era Series coming to your channel then? :D

[@Kmaster2007]

This is based on Bellevue, OH. (I know this because in Bellevue there is a Y that leads up to a museum that has trains on both sides of the tracks)

[@ZaneTekaucic]

Kmaster 2007 I can confirm this because the yard narrows down in the middle towards the west end, and the Wheeling and Lake Erie splits off to the south.

[@railfanningmichael3970]

I was actually looking to build a hump yard on my route from maps and I happened to come across the exact same yard as the route

[@thegamingrhino5864]

I live around there and I thought it was! When i saw the small museum with all the engines i thought it looked the the Mad River & NKP museum

[@SDTrains]

I love railfanning in Bellevue, in fact I was there a few days ago

[@Unknown_Bread]

I can confirm this because one of the dependencies near the locomotive servicing facility is the Bellevue shops.

[@SamLovesTrains]

Cool route! This looks like Bellevue Ohio.

[@frootloops1696]

You know its getting real when Approach starts having fps issues XD

[@Chasingrail]

XD

[@Kmaster2007]

LoL

Xd

[@npk765fan]

Lol

[@Mnrr6131]

I can’t stop playing this route

[@douglasfalter2337]

Me, being from Northern Ohio, instantly recognized this area. This is based on Norfolk Southern's Bellevue, Ohio terminal. I seen the museum at about 4:15 and I've been there multiple times, that's when I knew it is Bellevue. I was like, wow! That's Bellevue! This is so cool! Also, at 7:00, the video shows a location based on Flat Rock, Ohio just south of Bellevue. I know this area by heart!

[@Mudpaws]

Hey Doug !!!!! it me fermas ;)

[@barryconnors3474]

I downloaded this route. it is amazing. large and adventurious. well made.

[@mandm339]

That’s Bellevue!!! Nearly perfect. Everything from A yard to the bowl to RT 4 to the E tracks. The bean plant, mini plant, Klines Yard too. Wow this is phenomenal

[@bobbyboy1962]

how has this been not seen by me till now?!!!!! Wow thanks Approach for bringing this to our attention

[@sturdy4535]

Love the new introduction! Looks very nice! 👍🏻 👌🏻😄😁

[@victorstrains]

Officer Sturdy agreed!

[@tagsdm]

Just D/Led from the DLS, again with no missing whatevers. Even using regular access (not 1st class). Took about 2 hours or so. New to Trainz, I have T:ANE 90945. Excellent route.

[@rbfishcs123]

I remember working the hump in seattle and letting go of a loaded autorack when i was brand new. boy those were fun times.

[@rayvaul3539]

I am SO jealous right now🤯. This looks better than my Stratton’s Pioneer (hump) Yard! I’m thinking about remodeling the hump on it for the W.I.P. Stratton, Odessa & Southwestern Railroad (based off of and is at a real location in western-central to western Texas. ......that’s a lot I had just said, lol.

[@ToledoRails]

That’s a very faithful recreation of Bellevue Ohio.

[@bradyjett4097]

home town😎 I live here, it's Moorman Yard in Bellevue

[@colbylawson5331]

This yard is excellent in Trainz 2019! There is a missing asset, but that's alright because it doesn't affect the route at all! Though some of the locos could use better horns and engines, it's freaking awesome using this route.

[@mrelvispresley6977]

Hi Joe that's definetly a supperb route, maybe in my top ten of routes released, even though my computer is not able to handle it. Thanks!

[@davidn6124]

Beautiful route and reaction as Bellevue, Ohio!

[@houstonrailfanproductions8191]

I got a suggestion. I got a big classification yard in Houston Texas called the Englewood yard. I was thinking if you can do it..

[@NorfolkSouthernProductions]

Woah Awesome Video Man. I seen that yard this year!

[@unfoldingrain92unfoldingra55]

Cool video! I’m newer to trainz 19 and TANE, but how do you download jointed rail stuff after you buy it, also if you have both trainz 19 and TANE, The stuff that you bought on jointed rail can you download on both games or just one,?

[@sort187]

Does this work like what Train Simulator does (did) back in the early 2000s? I miss being able to run that simulator, but since my old computer (WindowsXP) bit the dust, and the new TrainSim doesn't look to even have an American railroad out of the box, I've been looking for a suitable replacement.

[@gunslinger6339]

Very Well Done Apporach,

[@BUFORDMAPPING]

Don't forget his amazing sessions.

[@chesapeakedproductions3009]

Correction: the hump yard (well, the whole yard as a whole) is based upon Norfolk Southern's Bellevue, Ohio Classification Hump Yard

[@rayvaul3539]

The ESCD84 has converted it to TRS2019, it's no longer compatible with T:ANE. I was really looking forward to getting it. Another reason why I want it is that he has a model of a hump yard speed retarder, which there aren't any good ones on the DLS. Something tells me he's going to get a lot of complaints.

[@escd8484]

The TANE version is still available via DLS. The TRS19 version has a different Kuid. This new version got a little bit of an improvement in terms of performance and other minor changes as the coal port and the yard in Sandusky comes with this in the future.

[@s-lineproductions4420]

A NS Hump yard with more CSX engines than NS

[@jeffreyhueseman7061]

S-Lines Productions at least it's not Queensgate, with a NS and a CSX yard in the same footprint.

[@s-lineproductions4420]

Jeffrey Hueseman True

[@cincybus8744]

Jeffrey Hueseman omg 😂

[@jessmeanley4964]

S-Lines Productions good idea

[@MattProtrains]

Amazing design!

[@thetrainmaster2723]

4:49 - 7:31 can you please send me the link to the song of where you got it from? Its really catchy!

[@MattChaffe]

I think I don't take for granted how good the Trainz series is. I'm so used to thinking that the Dovetail Games' Train Simulator is the best, but the detail with Trainz is very good. I feel the tools to create routes, as well as the assets, are vastly bigger than those of DTG. I'm thinking on putting my money on Trainz A New Era and maybe even Trainz Model Railroad.

[@ApproachMedium]

Trainz A New Era, yes, I would skip Model Railroad edition. TMR was basically a content pack/cash grab and literally everything from it can be purchased or downloaded into TANE.

[@MattChaffe]

@@ApproachMedium Thank you for the information! Another question if you don't mind; Will it be best to wait for Trainz Simulator 2019 or do you think I can put money down for TANE and be happy with just that?

[@ApproachMedium]

TANE is great. 19 has been pretty good so far but personally I think it's way over priced and you need to have a pretty solid rig to run it at its fullest. I'd say 50/50 really. If you have a powerful rig then I'd go for 19, if not then just go with TANE. And I might be mistaken here, but I think when you buy 19 you get a copy of TANE too but I'm not 100% on that.

[@MattChaffe]

@@ApproachMedium Alright I'll keep those in mind before I make my decision. Thank you so much!

[@skytheguyno]

Can you make a video on building "techniques" like how to make turns and junctions look realistic?

[@bensmall6548]

all the person needs to add now, is the south bowl tracks which ns built a few years ago

[@charliesdestructionchannel1112]

I love those signals do you know what type are

[@jarroddark8560]

hi Joe. this route you downloaded does it have a couple of scenarios that goes with this route my friend?

[@robbleeker4777]

I've seen a review on this game TRAINZ but it didn't show a building game..... Is this game like transport fever, in which you get to build stuff to enable yourself to transport things?

[@ApproachMedium]

Kind of but not really. There's no balancing of commodities or anything like that. It's more of a world builder like SimCity or Cities Skylines but with trains. When you're done building your world you can hop into the cab of one of the trains and drive it around.

[@mile290productions3]

In usually wake up around 9 to 10 *_Approach Medium AM_*

[@sdjulius9445]

I grew up around that yard

[@alistairs3934]

Sd Julius Awesome

[@terryboldenjr.3555]

Wow just wow!! Awesome

[@asiaphilson8444]

Question do you know how to make switches change direction on their own? (If that made sense lol)

[@connormccord5329]

Could you do a series hilighting routes like these for TANE as its so hard to find good quality content like this

[@rogerhampson8717]

Love the video! What song did you use at the end?

[@ApproachMedium]

It's called Remembrance by Purple Dive

[@halfwick7560]

Those are JMR signals not JR signals but the route looks nice, I already downloaded it lol.

[@vermilionrailfan5651]

uh-quick question. How and the HECK do I download from the dls? I have done it in the past, but feburary came and KABLOOSHKI! I cant download anything.

[@waynebutt3735]

I need to download this! Wow! Thanks for sharing!

[@highhorsesproductions1177]

How do I replace the track? It won't even load with the current track.

[@npk765fan]

How long did it take you to download this.

[@St.LouisMadeNike]

Nice

[@thatonetrainzyoutuber]

will you by chance connect this to the p&b?

[@ZaneTekaucic]

This yard looks as if it is based on Moorman Yard in Bellevue, Ohio.

[@toddneil2406]

I followed your map above to get this module; but found no joy. The Trainz site said nothing found. Too bad, it looks awesome.

[@ApproachMedium]

Try searching for user Escd84 on the download station

[@vermilionrailfan5651]

It's called Norfolk southern yard module, it should be on the dls

[@DerHistoryMeister]

So sad, I lost all my T:ANE content. EVERYTHING. D: I wish I could download this.

[@thatguyy7581]

Awesome!

[@TheBNSFengineer]

A great route to run a steam powered freight train, even if it is a modern route

[@johnkuzma7066]

exactly what i was thinking. possibly the N&W Y6b?

[@Burlychicken88]

hi i'm bradley i where can i find those chessie system coil cars between 5:10 5:22-5:56 please

[@ohiorailfanproduction5436]

That was the Bellevue yard

[@philsooty5421]

Birds? they have been a feature in Train Simulator for years now.

[@christherailfan5851]

What is the name of the bridge asset at 5:37?

[@wreckzilla9900]

what track did he use

[@abangcakepcakep9519]

good job👍❤!

[@jarroddark8560]

what the name of the song you found Joe. i like it.

[@ApproachMedium]

It's called Remembrance

[@benharleman587]

That’s in Bellevue, Ohio!!!!

[@awesomestudios2177]

can you build UP's Oakland Yard?

[@Jaxanator25]

That map looks to be heavily based off of the yard in Bellevue, Ohio

[@Michael-eg3rs]

i think it is because of that train museum at 7:10

[@44WillysMB]

AM, What track do you recommend as a replacement?

[@nawmtu]

@@tavvun I know I'm late but T:ANE has good realistic bulit in track

[@DoubleSpikeProductions]

How did you get the Cinematic Shots?

[@Michael-eg3rs]

hit F5 and just fly around slowly

[@DoubleSpikeProductions]

Michael Bobb - Thank you!!

[@haegenbyrne]

my route has dependices missing

[@glaze_tpf9791]

I am currently on day 5 of downloading

[@Cryptonymicus]

How''s the frame rate when you've got a few thousand freight cars in the yards?

[@ApproachMedium]

Slideshow. But if you turn down some graphics details it’s not so bad. Check out ESCD’s videos, he gets a pretty solid frame rate.

[@donaldvsluis1380]

How do you move around a session like you do?

[@victorstrains]

Cool!

[@Mudpaws]

COOLSIES

[@Trainboivr]

I HAVE TRAINZ 2!

[@boylesterminalshops6841]

P&B needs a hump yard?

[@burlingtonnorthernfan07bns80]

Are you the creator of Trainz simulator 2

[@anrails3220]

Is this a online game? Like you can drive with other players

[@josephbennett3482]

trainz2007 11 I don't think it is at least I don't see any info on multiplayer. But you can make the AI operate the trains which is almost like having other people playing with you on the Sim.

[@Michael-eg3rs]

yes and no, its got multiplayer but its a bit fiddly, so its mostly a singleplayer game, look up Trainz A New Era, Trainz 12, or Trainz 2019

[@egg3050]

Yay yard work at a hump yard

[@xigma5538]

Love it I can't find it on the DLS

[@pluey200]

XIGMA 553 he didn't make this map, as said in the video

[@xigma5538]

pluey200 I know I saw that later

[@jarroddark8560]

yes, he did. look for it on the download station Norfolk Southern Yard Module Kuid2:203554:100102:6 CDP on Trainz A New Era.

[@xigma5538]

Jarrod Dark thank you found it and he did not you can see in the description

[@jarroddark8560]

no problem my friend. enjoy your new route @XIGMA 553

[@djkirkdigglerusn5476]

Man this mod is absolutely beautiful Can I get it :)

[@TheBlarggle]

*_*Fist Bump_**

[@MattFanelli]

That looks like Bellevue Ohio to me

[@erkish5444]

it is

[@andrewtreece3708]

Bellevue Ohio mooreman yard.

[@jonathanburrowaz]

Why is trainz so jerky. Even on high end systems

[@carlissakelley7929]

How may dependencies would I have to download?

[@Southern1581Trainz]

An absolute ton from the DLS. I picked up this route a few days ago and I think it said that I had like 1300 that I would need to install from the DLS. Not sure about 3rd party stuff, but I think as long as you have most of the JR scenery stuff you ought to be fine.

[@carlissakelley7929]

Sean Dean oh well then I only can download 100 a day so yea nvm

[@Southern1581Trainz]

Not to mention that without an FCT, I will struggle to even hit that limit because the speed is so slow.

[@Southern1581Trainz]

If they did so it would be highly illegal and violate the rights of hundreds of content creators. I do agree that the amount of speed throttling they put on the DLS in order to monetize themselves with the FCT is a little absurd. I understand that FCT's are their main selling ticket between major trainz versions, but goodness, they throttle the DLS download speeds to like pre-2001 levels in order to sell it. Seems a little overboard to me, but I have no choice in the matter.

[@Southern1581Trainz]

I did make a discovery, most of us probably have 2 days of free FCT that we didn't even know about that we can activate through trainz portal (if you're on the forums, hit the My Trainz tab at the top menu, then go to Download Tickets on the left hand menu, and the free FCT, if not used, will be at the bottom). I'll be activating mine sometime tomorrow and plowing through a few routes to get the deps while I can. I've heard the speed increase is pretty huge.

[@GooseinTheCabooseProductions]
