A slice out of time by John Flemming

Here’s a pic sent by John to show his virtualized version of our latest freebie.  He tells us it represents January 30th 1927 in a light snow.  John’s V scale railroad models a real line during the year 1927.  He has it programed to reproduce the real weather conditions that exhisted on each day of the year.

Looks nice. What is the software that you use?

I have to set the record straight. The magnificant 25 mile railroad was designed by a Canadian, Wayne Campbell. I don't have any computer programing skills. He researched and build the road over a three year period and then freely shared it with the Train Simulator world. I have been able to add many items to the railroad, three of which show in the screen shot. The building just in front of the electric loco, the Wabash box car in the lower right and of course the scales.
Ben, if I understand the question, I use Microsoft's Train Simulator with many add on's. To make the structures and rolling stock, a utility from Abacus is used called Traim Sim Modeler. John
