Name of Route: Stinky Creek and Cheesman Pacific R.R. V 1.1 04-04-05

Description: This is a fictional Wild-West (1880-1890s) railroad in the southwestern US. The route runs about 60 miles total, with 10 miles of dual track mainline "Cheesman Pacific", and the 50 miles "Stinky Creek" - Branch line, inluding coal, silver-mine and logging spurs.

Open, find and click the "INSTALL.BAT", now all needed files from your 6 default Routes will be loaded.
(See "additional zip File:"), to ready The Route for Explore mode operations.

Note: If file "SCCP.set01" downloads from (Train-Sim.com) with a ".zip" extention, simply rename it without the ".zip" and the extraction file "SCCP.zip" will do the job by following step 2.

Additional zip File: SC_Extras.zip contains a Gravel Roads File, the shape file is needed for the route and needs to be placed into your Train Simulator's \Global \Shapes Folder.
The Textures are allready in the SCCP route Textures folder, nothing needs to be done with them.

Fantasy Freight and Passenger operations around 1880-1890s Wild West era in the southwestern US.

One Main line station "Cheesman Junction" on the north- south running Cheesman Pacific line with several sidings, including to Engine Roundhouse and service area, one spur to a coal mine, and one to the Stinky Creek Branch line Station, all in and around Cheesman City. There is one Station called Whistler and a Farm stop on the dual track Cheesman Pacific, with Farmland to the south and Badlands
north of Cheesman, with bridges at both ends of town crossing the river.
The Stinky Creek Branch line leaves and heads west and uphill, first into the high dessert, with alternating grasslands, sand and red rock. At the dessert town of O.K. Corral, a spur leaves to the Patrick & Colin Silver mine, which can be seen from the high trestle of the S.C. line. We continue through cattle ranch areas with a stop at the PHK Ranch and hangin tree, an area frequented by train robbers. After a mid-lenght tunnel the land scape changed to wooded hills, with the town of Longhorn, there are plenty of cattle to be loaded. A couple of ghost towns like Dead Horse Pass and Motherload, are along the way with more mining activity. After another tunnel the Stinky Creek is being followed and at the routes highest point, Summit Pass it heads past a logging spur and finally downward into the town of Gun Hill.
