Description:
The Columbia Western (COLW) is a Fictional or Free Lanced Full Scale Railroad that is located in the State of Oregon. The layout which is based on real life areas in Northwest Oregon and the West side and the Northern Willamette Valley is set in the year 2011.
In the early 1990's the railroad came under the management of the skinny manager, Bill Ed Capp. The railroad has seen tremendous growth under his leadership, with the discovery of Naturally occuring coal, oil, along with other things that made the Northwest region famous, the railroad is an essential part of everyday life in the River Valley and the Southern Plain area, as well as the great coastal port of Rolland Gate's.
The Finished route goes from Mildon (shown) to Willark about 45 miles away, this is the River Valley District. Three other lines also exist on the route, the Wendi District from Willark to Redford which is 34 miles south is completed, as well as the Cantor District from Willark to Garfield Post (Near the Cantor Wye) about 23 miles southwest over a 2% grade and into Snowsheds which once was host to the massive 2-6-6-6 'Oregon' type Steam Locomotives and Heavy 2-6-6-2 J-7 Class Modern Mallet's. There is all kinds of Columbia Western Trains under the Reporting marks COLW availible. And ask me permission before you release a scenario, not all the navigation points are set, and there are no signals to govern trains. This will be the final update for a while, I wan't to focus more on other games, and maybe do other things for my channel Cody 3751.
