I've never worked on a steamship, but I suppose they are. This is the most energy efficient way to burn them, because no energy has to be wasted to kill them first. Neither the stoker's nor the sheep's energy. This again means that less sheep have to be burned for a nautical mile - and animal protection societies will be satisfied.

Whoa whoa whoa!
Burning sheep? I think ye be barking up the wrong tree! The vessels are used to transport livestock (sheep etc) From A to B, they have diesel engines, and all waste gasses are vented out of the vessel, to prevent explosion. At no point are any sheep or other animal burnt or combusted (unless the vessel catches fire, in which case theres one heck of a BBQ going on)

if they were also transporting bbq sauce, that would be one epic bbq!

I've known plenty of sheep which have gone for burning, but that may just be the bad chef

Now you see what happens if you don't have enough sheep. There is really money in raising sheep!

not relly

I see MSTS is rich of free downloadable content as that's what on priority for me, but which one has the best realistic quality graphics of environments & trains?

The Ferry Man · « **Reply #15918 on:** August 23, 2011, 19:09:35 »

Railworks 2... and Railworks 3 is looking to be better...

Wave Music · « **Reply #15919 on:** August 23, 2011, 19:16:58 »

Is Railworks 2 by quality of graphics better than Trainz 12 ?

I'm mostly looking for some Russian trains to be in game. So far I saw free ones for Trainz on http://trainz.ru/ & http://trainzup.com/?paged=12
Is there something similar for Railworks?

Not sure about Russian trains I am afraid... :/
