Routes - MAPLE LEAF TRACKS: Cascades Crossing
















MAPLE
LEAF TRACKS: Cascades Crossing

































































Finally, MAPLE
LEAF TRACKS at least obtained that one looks at his production a
little more closely! It is true that I am not a large amateur of
these American roads, often interminable and of a monotony to die.
It is thus full with apprehension that I offered myself the last
production, Cascades Crossing
.


















The advantage
of the site, it is that all the production is downloaded. After
payment on line by bank card, the bond of remote loading arrives
by mail at the end of at sorrow one hour. The disadvantage, it is
the size of the files, here 239 Mo, it is necessary to have a solid
connection, but that is not any more one big problem in France,
a good dégroupé ADSL and the file arrives in less
10mn.


















The installation
is done automatically, a generation of plugs and on the way towards
great spaces. Agoraphobic friend, goes your way! One is well in
America! The line covers 220 miles of Eugene with Klamath Falls
in OREGON. But the landscape is often imposing and especially it
arrives at being varied in spite of the distances what is a challenge.


















MAPLE LEAF
describes us the course: in the West, you have at the same time
urban landscapes and country, while going towards the East, it is
the drill of conifers which appears, before becoming again desert
to finish by the mountain and its cascades. Bre, the road releases
an undeniable charm, one is often surprised to seek the external
sights because the landscape extends very far. Fluidity in the play
is remarkable



















MAPLE LEAF
delivers with the line a cetain a number of materials whose 10 Diesel
locos which resemble each other besides much but they are beautiful
machines, to traverse this not electrified single-track line. To
note the use of technology house, the sigview, for an indication
which is seen with more 2km, it is preferable because the slopes
are stiff and when that goes down better is worth to largely anticipate
braking.




















Lastly, the
cabins are very realistic, I like the mug with the color of the
company, it must often make thirst in the corner, in summer! In
short, you can let yourselves try, it would be good to have passengers
activities because those provided, approximately ten, certainly
are very worked but relate to only freight, I suppose that this
must be in conformity with reality. Price of the software: 20.64
euros, VAT included. In the play, the road is called Willamette
Pass

Bonsoir,

Premičre impression trčs favorable sur cette ligne que je parcours en ce moment pour la premičre fois.Contrairement ŕ Kicking Horse du męme fournisseur, le paysage est plus varié. Mention trčs bien pour la reproduction des locos, sales comme en réalité sur le SP. Trčs bien aussi les cabines dont ŕ mon avis c'est la meilleure reproduction existante pour ce type de loco. Il y a également une vue aide-conducteur.

Pour l'activité voyageur, il faut donc s'en créer une, puisque dans la réalité c'est l'itinéraire du Coast Starlight (Seattle-Los Angeles).

Merci, Gorri78, pour ces avis toujours extrčmement pertinents !

Pour le trafic voyageur, aurais-tu une idée de ce qui circule sur cette ligne, comme matériel? Pour les locos, il est possible que ce soit les męmes mais les voitures ?

Bonsoir,

La compo actuelle de base est : 2 P42 Genesis + 1 fourgon type Heritage+8 ŕ 10 superliner. Si le matériel remorqué ne change pratiquement pas il n'en est pas de męme pour la traction. Sur l'excellent site www.railpictures.net, on peut voir en + des Genesis, 1 ou 2 PHI59, des Dash Amtrak et męme une Dash de l'UP ou alors une combinaison PHI59 AmtrakCalifornia+1 Dash Amtrak+2P42+1 PHI59Surfliner !

Tout ce matériel est dispo sur www.train-sim.com et pour la petite histoire le surnom du train est Coast Starlate en raison de ses retards fréquents.
