MSTS - CSX Western & Atlantic Route
Tunnel Hill, GA - Acworth, GA
My first route for a railroad simulation program was never finished, but there still seems to be a tiny bit of interest in it, so i've resurrected the download for it. This is the same version found in the MSTS file library.

Action on the Dalton Diamond
This webcam is positioned at the CSX/NS at-grade crossing in Dalton, Ga. Click on the "Play" button in the lower left corner of screen. Clicking the large one in the center pops out the main site.
For now, i've killed the annoying pop-up ads, but UStream may find a way to reinstate them at a later date. Enjoy!

About SMM Asset Downloads
2011-1105 - The assets that are available in the left Download pane were made for Railworks 2 train simulator. They are not "optimized" (I prefer the term repaired, being that they weren't broken until the Great Downdate) to run in Railworks 3: Train Simulator 2012. I am currently using these assets without issues in the TSX engine of TS2012. However, with TSX off, several assets have displayed a few anomalies that may affect your game play experience.
These assets are slowly being repaired as I work them into the next release of the Atlanta North District Route. As soon as that route is made available for public consumption, I will begin reworking and re-releasing the assets that have been affected by the changes RSC has made. In the mean time they are still available for your use at your own discretion.

Signal Creation Tutorial
Parts 1-4 of a signal creation tutorial for Railworks 3 is now available for users of 3D Canvas. This was written using 3DC version 8.xxx, but should be applicable to all version. Even if you are not into creating signals, the tutorial still provides useful tips for building assets for the simulator.
The 3DC files and Source files for this asset are also available for download on page one of the tutorial.
