Active Members:
Popcorn:
Hello Y'all, I'm Isaiah. I was one of the Original members of THS, after quite some time off the team I've made a come back. I'm currently a restoration volunteer on Reading 2100, and a welder. I enjoy rugged logging railroads, operations based in the steam era, digging through archives, and working around or on antique equipment. I primarily do reskins, updates, and 3D models for Trainz.
Michael:
Hello, my name is Michael (aka Mike’n’Ike on discord) and I am a recent graduate of Theatrical Technical Design with an emphasis on Sound and Audio Design, Voice Over and Scenic Design and construction. I’ve been a “trainzohilc” since getting my first copy of Trainz 2004 back in 2004 and have played the game pretty consistently since that time, upgrading with each version as they’ve been released. I joined THS right in the midst of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 as a route builder, having done some upgrading and expansions to routes that been released prior for other sites… a narrator, having done voice over work with Dynamo Productions on YouTube and voice over in college… along with being a reference source for finding diagrams, blueprints and other odds and ends for projects and for other sites. While I haven’t released anything on the site as of yet, due to computer limitations and the upgrading to a new computer…current plans are to start contributing prototype routes for people to enjoy, with current focus being on the Middletown & Hummelstown Railroad. THS isn’t the only outlet I work with, as I do occasionally help with finding resources for The Texas State Shops, providing videos for Dynamo Productions on YouTube, and work and volunteer at numerous railroads and rail related organizations in the Keystone State. If anyone has any question about routes, potential diagrams, historical information or are in need of a narrator, shoot me a message on discord and I’ll do my best to accommodate.
WesTexas Desperado:
Howdy, my name is Will/WesTexasDesperado and I am a mechanical engineering student in college. I am from the lone star state and enjoy planes and cars just as much as railroading. I am the proud owner of a family-kept 2011 Camaro SS LS3 w/Manual and I love the Vought F4U-4 Corsair. I have been a Trainz user since I got my first disk copy of Trainz 2006 off the shelf from Target. I joined THS around mid-2022 and most of my projects thus far have been on a rather large scale. I deeply enjoy making routes and they are likely to be my major contributions within the community. My favorite roads are the AT&SF, PRR, D&RGW, and ERIE. My favorite locomotives are the ERIE K-5a and C39-8. If y’all have any sorta questions about my routes or with Trainz in general, shoot me a message on discord and I’ll see what I can do.
AndyYZ:
Hey everyone, Andy here. I'm a hobbyist with a growing knack for modeling, and actively seek to expand my knowledge of understanding. I'm working alongside the others here to provide excellent content that people can enjoy. You've more than likely seen my kitbash and reskin content pop up on your YouTube's recommended here and there. I hope to have a lot in store when it comes to releases, and I won't be alone with my buddies here to help me. Don't be a stranger, feel free to stop by and say hello whenever I'm in chat!
A Thanks to Contributors, both Past & Present.

Kind regards,
Brougham
