    I just started developing a route for release in Workshop. It will be from the Milwaukee Roads Rocky Mountain electrified division. It will start at Harlowton, MT and terminate at Three Forks, MT. It will be developed based on how it was around 1962.

    Here is the link to my post in the route suggestion thread, with a fair amount of information. https://forums.dovetailgames.com/th...sion-between-harlowton-mt-and-avery-id.14879/

    The one thing I don’t have for this route is any traction or rolling stock. Would anyone have suggestions on attaining these assets?

    Trainz stuff exists, though it'd be a chore to port. (Someone once ported the N&W Y6a but was soon shut down by Auran of all people). There's also MSTS versions, which could work, but would be poor quality.

    That is currently outside my capabilities at the moment. That and 3D building. Though I would have said the same thing about route building just a few months ago.

    As I understand it, I would only be able to release the route on Workshop. The rolling stock and traction, since there’s nothing out there by/through DTG, wouldn’t be able to be included, unfortunately.

    The only bit of MILW rolling stock that's official is the US only GP9 pack, it contains a MILW version. Otherwise Railworks America has a number of MILW repaints for various diesels, Golden Age of Railroading has a few things as well. Probably won't be able to post it on the workshop, but that's your best bet unless you're ok with using the GP9 for everything.
