35. Cannon Beach Intro

Almost 2 months since my last update.... Gah. I've had nowhere near as much time this summer as i thought i would. That said, don't start thinking that I have enough more time now that I'll for sure be back to regular updates. I do, however, have enough material together for a few updates, and this one is mostly setup for the next two.

So here we go.

Region: Somewhere on the shore of the Great Sea.

Area/Tile: Cannon Beach.

01. Highway 101 crosses a river that empties into the nearby pacific.

02. A small but busy town lies on the other side of the river. The remains of an old downtown stand with some historical buildings along the scenic highway.

04. The town's rail station. It takes passengers to the next town south, where there's also a small cargo port.

@Grstudios, westy177: Thanks guys! I tried to imitate some of the real rail loops I've seen, although there wasn't quite enough space there to do it correctly.

@kevenbro: Thanks, bro!

@hammysonata: Thanks a lot Those gravel piles are MMP's from the SFBT team, availible somewhere over at the LEX.

and holy tornado, Rip City got a comment

@megie: Thanks, the diagonal parking is by the SFBT team and availible over at the LEX, although Paeng has recently relotted that set too, and his relot is available over at simpeg.com
