I found my game!

I just found my CDs for Railroad Tycoon 3! I hadn’t been able to find it since I re-imaged my hard drive. I think I’ll install it later this evening and play it!

Has anyone tried Sid Meier’s Railroads!? How does it compare? I don’t know if I should get that or stick with RT3.

261 Sighting

bravopapa — Fri, 09 May 2008 22:02:07 +0000

The Milwaukee Road 261 came through Norwood Young America today. I can’t show you any pictures, as I didn’t have my camera with me. They had a few passenger cars (including the Cedar Rapids), but no passengers. I’m assuming this was a “test run” to make sure everything is working. I found their shop blog online. It talks about some of the work they have been doing on the 261 and the rolling stock. It also mentions a first fire-up in early May … so I think that is what I saw today.

I was fortunate to be outside to hear the steam whistle, and I got to the grade crossing just in time!
