Very fine image!. I searched the Workshop and find no South West Branch Line. Is this maybe the freeware DP Simulation route of that name?

 

Oh, yes, youre right, its by DPSimulation.

Just the sort of shot I had in mind when I chose this theme.

How is this contest working?

 

This contest works as an unofficial contest compared to Dovetail Games' official contest, this means in our unofficial contest you can submit whatever Train Simulator Classic screenshots you want to the contest, it just needs to involve a train. For example you can use trains and routes from any developer you like which means you can use third party developers content that are not on the Steam store in this contest. You can also use graphics enhancements for the game if you like. You can submit 3 screenshots each week. I suggest you read the rules at the start of each unofficial contest thread to get a better overview of how the unofficial screenshot contest works.
