REVIEWS & COMMENTS
"Murchison Stage 2
creates a new standard of excellence in route building. Absolutely superb"
Collin Trevana
"Murchison 2 is the most photorealistic route I have
ever driven, you are fully surrounded by the flora and fauna of the region-- just waiting
for Mike to develop the smell of salt water for Trainz.
The best route I have
ever seen and it just keeps getting better!"
Gandy-Dancer
This is more than just a route,
its a masterpiece of art. Murchison 2 is by far a statement in the history of
trainz!"
Tyler Bishop (Flamerail)
I lost my heart to
Murchison when it was Murchison Logging and thought that nothing could surpass it. I was
wrong. Murchison Stage 2 has now become the love of my life, it is not just Murchison 1
lifted to a much higher plane, it is a whole new wonderful experience

Trainz Simulator MURCHISON 2 (TS2009 /
TS2010 / TS12)
|
Murchison 2 is a merging of the
original Narrow Gauge Murchison
logging layout with an extensive
Standard Gauge rail network
to produce a fully integrated
and interactive SG/NG layout.
By incorporating landscape based
on actual New Zealand electronic
map data with specially
developed Nature Series sets
(animated waterfalls, river
splines, textures, cliff splines,
rail ledge splines, rock splines),
Murchison 2 takes Trainz to a
new level of realism. The result
is a photorealistic colonial
layout, set in the steam/diesel
transition era, that users can
submerge themselves in for a
complete interactive rail
experience.
Whether a steam-era NG
enthusiast, or solely interested
in SG steam or diesel operation,
the 440 board Murchison 2 layout
contains a huge variety of
interactive and inter-related
industries for operational
pleasure that will keep the
train enthusiast immersed for
100's of hours of interactive
operation.
Features:
Includes the Nature Series Pack:
The Murchison 2 pack includes
