A comparison between a payware Train Simulator route and an upgrade of mine
The route in question is the Kicking Horse Pass set in the Canadian Rockies. The first two are the original scenes from this route , and the others are my own replacements

Michael, did you create these images from scratch? They are fantastic! |

Vibeke, buy Microsoft Train simulator, by the KHP2 add-on then download my upgrade from the train-sim.com library 
Anna, I have done about 130 tree/treelines and they come from my photos; however, in a lot of cases drastic "reconstruction" is required: the first pic was of a pine which only had one side foliage (the othe side was dead), so I had to build it up. 
Sorry for the small sizes but I need to protect my work.

Re: A comparison between a payware Train Simulator route and an upgrade of mine
Hi Michael I think you've done an outstanding job. I was once into Flight Sim before Photoshop took up my spare time and the scenery is so important to enhance the whole experience. I bought an addition which comprised life like airports for the east of England and actually landing at Luton, Heathrow, or Old Warden, when it looks just like the real thing, is so much better. The scenery, while good, still did not look that real, but yours is something different. Top stuff and perhaps marketable? Nick |
