Google Earth Streetview now covers DAR territory

Post by Dan Conlin »

Google Earth's Streetview now includes most of DAR's territory. There's lots of great views where main roads cross the old DAR Right of Way. Wonderful view of Mrs. Nicholson's station in Annapolis Royal from the George Street overpass. It is great for gathering terrain information and visuals of surviving buildings for those of us who don't live in the Valley.
My only beef is they skipped Kingsport!

Hi Dan,

I stumbled on this the other day, should come in handy for the MSTS route. I've also noticed Bing recently added poor quality images for the missing satellite images from Hants Border to Windsor. Although these are no better then what Google has, maybe it's a sign they are going to add better quality images in the (hopefully) near future.

Paul :-)
