    Yes, that's right. I thought the US locos might throw you off the scent a bit, but I was wrong. Over to you.

    I identified the tracks and the landscape, then a quick google for checking but I never been there (neither in real life or in the sim) :)

    Ok, this got stuck, if someone else wants to upload another one, do it, and I'll reveal the location.

    The clues are clear - typical Miami to West Palm Beach setting, blue station with a white overpass, and the bridge, which is possibly one of the interstates. Guess if anyone is in a mood to run the end to end daylight career scenarios, would find it :)

    Or load up the route builder and find it that way.

    I give you a hint: the overpass is not an interstate

    Crazy, isn't it. 55 reviews. 8 out of my 11 TS friends have it. Was / is even part of TS US edition.
    It's not like this challenge is crazy. Folks over at the UK thread post random bends and people respond.
    Maybe these forums are dominated by UK specialists. Even Hagen-Siegen was too hard, despite included in TSW.
    This is exactly what I meant during that little thing with Pookeyhead.

    Anyway, I'm pondering to run it. I played the route in 2018-07 and the P30CH a year ago, a re-run won't hurt.

    As far as rules go, not sure how long a challenge should stay when unresolved. Maybe a week? I'm overly active now but I can imagine folks checking it a couple times a week.

    I have a fair number of UK and European routes including some not sold on Steam.
    But a clear up of Assets and Routes saw me remove most of my US routes and locos.
    Some US routes are still installed, like Sherman Hill, as its required in a number of Freeware routes.
    I got irritated with some of the US locos and stock with coaches staying coupled properly - this train is moving

    Some of the US routes are too slow for me - New York - New Haven is ok but I don't like the signals as they are difficult to see

    Another one: the overpass is a rail system!

    Admittedly I don't know, just based on things, I suspect it might be New Haven. On the Springfield Route.
    (Old setting, partial electrification, PRR.)

    This is located south of New York, and the route was released with modern content.

    One of the Jersey routes then, and it seems wooden ties so it would be in the coast line. I'm gonna check in the editor later but I'll go over there

    Still too far north, this is part of the NEC and is one of the major US city's that is served on it.

    The station is the last one on a DTG German route - it is not a dead end station.

    Not enough experience :(
    As far as I know the 420 comes for München-Augsburg but this doesn't remind me either of those.
    Looks like a relatively newer offering.
    It reminds me a little bit of Düsseldorf, but it was ages ago (in real life) so... Also that's one of the oldest routes.

    Not M-A or K-D
    The real 420s are or were based in the Frankfurt area but this is further south.
    It was a scenario for a 423 but I don't like them so I swapped it for a 420

    Ok, this might be easy, but I found the place very nice. Just the city will be ok, the near station would be better and the building would be a plus. Anyway, where am I? Screenshot_LGV Rhone-Alpes & Mediterranee - Lyon to Marseille_45.74728-4.85910_10-09-09.jpg

    Same :( Reminds me of a random location during a Samedan to Scuol-Tarasp video. Which isn't on TS, so...

    I also think a few people left the thread :(

    Random countryside and the end of a nondescript station. It could be anywhere in rural Switzerland.

    That's odd, I do have that one but I can't remember anywhere with that lack of forest (I assume because of the altitude¿?). Are you sure this isn't Bernina Pass?

    I only have one of the two and I did not realise they had different names - it is on the Bernina Pass: St Moritz – Poschiavo Route

    I think giving the route is is situated on does narrow it down somewhat - that and they type of train used.

    In real life I think all Tirano-St Moritz is nammed Bernina Line, in the game is splited in two parts unfortunatelly.
    So now that I know which route it is... Bernina Lagalb perhaps?

    Yes, the Ge6/6 is a bit of cheat as it would not have run down there
