Hawk & Badger Railroad Forum

Hehe .

I tend to overborrow but I seem to have avoided that trap this time. BTW, I think I recognise the industries in Hämeenlinna...Wetterhoff & Atria? :)

From the Russian side at least St. Petersburg should be activated. Maybe Viborg as well...

Just started . It's a bit tricky in the beginning but I'm started to build up a head of steam as it were. So far so good.

I seem to be the one who throws a "Why not make...." into the air and then somebody grabs it and makes it a reality. I have nothing against that!

My idea!

One task might be transporting paper from paper mills to ports at the coast, Finland is after all a well known paper producing country.

The first railway was Helsingfors (Helsinki) - Tavastehus (Hameenlinna) and it was completed 1860. Riihimäki - St. Petersburg was completed 11.09.1871. I saw the timetable of the first lines on that track. It took 4+ hours to reach Tavastehus(Hameenlinna) back in those days :shock: . Nowadays it's l...

A nice game but awfully heavy on my old computer. Also, it has my country's capital Helsinki as one of the cities!

New Consolidation 2-8-0? Consolidation 2-8-0 Mk. II?

Nope, not those. For one thing, the midrange and woofer are of different size on my speakers.

Since this subforum is for anything within reason, I'll stretch the boundaries a bit and ask this: Does anybody know where I could get some information about a pair of Jamo Speakers from the 1980's? They have a label that says Jamo 885. Neither jamo.com nor googling has yielded results. I'm looking ...

I'm wondering if anybody would be interested in doing the actual work of making such a map if I served as a source of information on the history part? I'm not really a scenario maker but I, as a Finn, would be able to check the details and to give a crash course, as it were, on Finnish history. The ...

Welp, got bronze. First time the game started lagging. Prolly it was the fact that I had 100+ trains rolling . It's kinda hard to build book value after a certain point. I got somewhat good results by building industries all over.

I'm not making loops but I do try to go up a hill diagonally, instead of straight up.
