Hello everyone!
Posted: Mon Feb 18, 2008 8:23 pm
I'd like to start off by saying I'm not really a newbie. I joined in December of '06. I don't post a whole lot but check the boards almost daily. I just thought I'd post in the newbie neighborhood to say I am here and love reading all the comments. I've just recently started "playing" RT3 ( I don't like to use that word, I consider Railroad Tycoon a simulation more than a game). I made two RT2 maps that are on this site and have used RT2 for several years.
I would like to thank all that are aboard for the wealth of knowledge and ongoing input to keep the games alive. I want to especially thank Hawk for all his effort for bringing this site together.
I'm from Northeastern Pennsylvania, about 15 miles north of Bloomsburg and about 50 miles south of Scranton (home of Steamtown National Historic Site) I've always seemed to have an interest in the historical aspect of the railroads, especially the ones local to me - Reading, Pennsylvania, Erie-Lackawanna, etc. There was actually a train station for the Bloomsburg and Sullivan RR , a short line primarily to haul lumber from the vast forests of Sullivan County to Bloomsburg and the Pennsy and Reading railroads, on my property. The tracks were torn out in the 70's
Well, this is getting a little long, so thanks again everyone for all the effort put forth in being a great reference tool, a general railroad interest community, and an ongoing source of development.
