    As UP Sherman Hill TSW2 route is coming relative soon according to last Roadmap, I share this information about the real route, in order to know what we can expect about it:

    Very interesting information about it, including all the modifications and improvements over the years:

    https://www.trains.com/trn/railroads/history/sherman-hill-the-first-rocky-mountain-railroad-pass/

    It is a 60 miles long mountain pass route !.
    So it will be interesting from this point of view.

    It is triple track main route too!.

    There is a tunnel, and the Dale Creek bridge.

    Finally a detailed map of the route:

    Hope be useful for you and liked it!

    If they can get the UP couplers on the same level they will already be ahead of the competition.
