Thank you folks so much for the wonderful photographs. I'm a modeler of sorts, but I do all of it in the MSTS Train Simulator.

A while back I was fortunate enough to run across some USGS SDTS Digital Elevation Models that were generated before there was a reservoir. Even though old, they are of excellent 10 meter resolution. Either that or someone sucked all of the water out of Colorado. smiling smiley

This is a plan view of the interesting parts after all track has been put down. I used the ICC Valuation Maps and "aerial photo archeology" where evidence of the old ROW is still visible. Perhaps not as accurate as Dave Dye's overlays, but I think it will capture the flavor.

This is the same view with a topographical overlay:

There's no scenery or permanent terrain texture yet, but this is the closest representation I could find for the bridge in Otto Perry's photo.

This little mini-route was never intended to be anything more than just that. I've donated it to a friend who already has it grafted into his Chama-Durango route (in progress). Maybe someday...

EDIT: Whatever went on at the little "Darlington" spur on the west side? smiling smiley

charlie
