Update Center Open
The self-serve update center is now open. You can take your old engine and wagons to it and automatically get them updated to the new technology V3 version. Yule Engines are an exception, not all versions have been created in V3 yet. Contact Kitto Flora if you need a Yule train updated quickly. To access the update center go to the Kitto Flora Transportation store at http://slurl.com/secondlife/Yeodeol/19/75/56 and click on the red teleport sphere.

New Train Demo
For 7 months I have been working on a complete re-design of the 'toy' steam train system, re- writing the scripts from scratch to use new non-physical and *smooth* motion, new and better track navigation system and a lot of improvements made possible by recently added LSL functions. You can now try the new train at Yeodeol <181,206,47>. Comments and questions are welcome. http://slurl.com/secondlife/Yeodeol/181/206/47

Second Life Server using Havok 7
This new simulator version has now been installed in most regions of the main grid. It appears that the bugs that affected some train operations has been fixed. I have received no communication from SL that they have been fixed, but none of the initial H7 bugs have appeared recently.

Wengen Railcar Line
Ride the new Wengen to Smithers Bluff Railcar line while you can. I built the Wengen to Okemo Gorge section, sponsored by Sejong Linden who has a great vision for SL. It connects to the ONSR railcar line that runs from Okemo Gorge down to Smithers Bluff. This is likely the only long-line rail service operational in SL at present.
The future of the Wengen to Okemo Gorge section is in doubt now, due to Linden Lab politics. http://slurl.com/secondlife/Wengen/69/209/92
