The St Ives branchline is under construction and a lot of objects are available for download from http://www.class50-hoover-bashers.com/bve.htm

That looks very nice indeed :eek:

Very nice indeed. When I first opened up the link to the screenshots my first impressions were that it was hand coded, then i was cobsmacked to find it was made using routebuilder.

I'm not knocking routebuilder, it's just the shades of grass just don't seem right, maybe a little to bland or dull. For me, this minor problem takes away some of the greatness, especially considering hand coding routes (X-city and Maybank) seem to have it near enough spot on.

It looks bloomin great!

It looks really good. The St Ives to St Erth branch line is one I know well. I'd say it's one of the most picturesque lines in the country. Well suited to a class 104.

and the 153

I must admit, I thought this wouldn't look too good. I opened the link to the screenshots, and I was shocked. It's looking so realistic it's painful! To then find it's a creation out of RouteBuilder, I was blown away!

Fantastic job by the route author here. This is one route that suits the 150/2 well, and would be fantastic to drive in BVE. :thumbup:

As soon as I can get BVE back into use this end, I'll be getting this route (when it's finished).

Looks awsome...do we know the author? Also, is the line still in service today?

Objects look amazing too!

Yes rich it is!

On the first site you posted Damon that looks a lot like Dawlish? Or is it MSTS?

My god a route for Dawlish

Just one thing: I would get rid of that stop marker.

Also, is the line still in service today?

Yes, the line is still used in passenger service. For timetable, see http://www.firstgreatwestern.co.uk/Content.aspx?id=48 at bottom of page download table C (Devon/Cornwall) and go to page 80-82

The route is very nice.

Routebuilder can build amazing routes. Its all down to the objects/textures used.
