As probably almost all of us, we once in our life have also been fascinating by trains. Even if my father became a navigator just few years after my birth, I first was more interested in railways than aviation. It understandably increased when at seven I got a Märklin scale railway. Unfortunately I never could acquire a Santa Fe Super Chief composition. But at least it now is possible to place it as a scenery object in FS9! It offers several other trains, and I did a little choice of them. You certainly will know them, but they appear in a different context.
Argentin "La Trochita" runs through the foothills of the Patagonian Andes between Esquel and El Maitén in Chubut Province.
The express train of Swiss Federal Railways connecting Zurich with Geneva - here a composition in vincinity of Geneva Cointrin Airport.
The "Cincinnatian" at Cincinnati Union Terminal - Art Deco at its best!
Class C62 of Japanese National Railways running on the Tōkaidō Main Line between Tokyo and Osaka. Here at Tokyo Marunouchi main station.
A cargo train driving over the very imposant viaduct at Chaumont in eastern France. This is part of the railway line from Paris to Mulhouse in Alsace.
The marshalling yard of the German Federal Railways at Hamburg Stellingen, in the Fuhlsbüttel approach lane
Passenger train connection City of Hannover with its airport at Langenhagen
An other cargo train crossing the Victoria Falls over its famous bridge
Alejandro Ramirez' Buenos Aires Estaciõn Retiro Belgrano
Gisborne Airport, NZ - one of the very few airports in the world crossed by a railway
Not shure whether the Oregon Ocean Scenic Railway was already operating in the Sixties.
And last but not least, the Union Pacific at Las Vegas - part of 1963 Las Vegas scenery
as well as the Southern Pacific train at Phoenix in CalClassic's Southwest scenery
