1st beta run

Post by stem »

This is too cool. I started on the west end of the track which looked like Wolfville and ran it all the way past the Aldershot Wye. It felt awesome! It definitely felt like home, especially the Kentville yard, which is brilliant!

Not a running hitch. My little consist ran perfectly through everything although I was surprised by some of the grades, especially the one around New Minas I think, and climbing from Kentville to Aldershot was steep too.

Can I request that the next step be adding some water to give us more of sense of orientation?

Thanks Paul. I await every further edition with much anticipation!

Hi All,

Nice shots of the Kentville yard Steve!

Just to let you know all roads have been added to what I have of the route so far, I'll start placing markers for the rivers today. I'll have a go at the Kentville Station before the next beta and that will help people figure out where they are.

Paul :-)
