Donner Pass

Add-On 1 User’s Manual

by 3D Train Stuff

 

 

Thank you for purchasing Add-on 1 to 3D Train Stuff’s ground-breaking Donner Pass route. As with all our add-ons, this one features several new activities designed to give you many hours of enjoyment. Perhaps the most unique of these activities is our 9-part historical re-enactment of the Storm of 1952. That particular storm essentially shut down Southern Pacific’s “Mountain” Division for two weeks and placed the lives of over 200 people in jeopardy. You’ll marvel as we recreate the forces of nature at its fiercest, and you’ll gain an admiration of the heroic efforts of SP’s train crews. If you’re not familiar with the story, click here for a brief abstract.

 

We’ve also included some of the most frequently asked-for rolling stock items of recent times. We’ll let the pictures tell the story!
