    So, took a short dive into the early access to give a look over some notable bits of scenery, some good, some bad

    The Good.

    Stations look great. Both Barstow and San Bernardino stack up really well.

    The 1st Ave Bridge looks great!

    Glad we finally got some actual North American trailers as scenery, the Intermodal Yard looks decent as well.

    RT 66 on the Hillside at Blue Cut

    Surprised to see the CHP Weigh Station on I-15 on Cajon modeled.

    The Bad.

    The Western America Railroad Museum equipment apparently got evicted

    No Santa Fe Stack in San Bernardino

    EDIT: So it looks like the Santa Fe Stack was modeled and is in the game files, but not on the route.

    So did you ever thought that Dovetail didn't have permission to put the railroad museum or the memorial in the game. Also maybe BNSF did not want them to put anything Santa Fe related in the game either. We don't know what was allowed and what wasnt.

    When Skyhook Games modeled HSC, they modeled the Railroaders Memorial Museum pretty well, using generic stock if necessary, pretty sure they didn't ask the museum for that.

    The memorial and Hill 582 could of been generic, using basic assets. (Benches, trees, rocks)

    The Santa Fe Stack was modeled and is in the game files, but not on the route, per TSC Discord.

    Its also worth nothing that DTG per some people on the TSC discord found info of planned ATSF formations on Cajon Pass using boxcars and F7's.
