eHistory of The Route:
It all started in the year 1880 by a miner who owned a mine in Iron Valley and built a shote line to the nearby town. After the track was layed he get a call to have a shipment by cart to Greenhill but because of the time it would take to arrive he thot of an idea to build his mining tracks for the town. hem and hit workers layed mine tracks to Greenhill and with there mine train made there the first shipment in 1889. A year passed and more orders came but due to the limit of what the small train can do the owner sought funding to build a better train and improve the railway which he named Green Hill & West Pass Railroad. by 1900 the railroad grew and more trains needed. The owner built The V1 steam train to pull the heavy trains. the next 15 years the railroad grew more as more daman for his loco was needed. 1920 The Green Hill & West pass got a request for a loco to Rockwell but there was no track with funding from both towns and 5 years to build A line was layed to Rockwell and the new V2 steamer made the first trip in 1921, The owner died that same year and his son took over the railway and renamed it The Dragons Pass Railroad because it went throw a valley known as dragons passage. The V3 Steam Train known and build in 1929 #400 to 420 became the backbone for the new line and would change the DPR forever. A new expedition was built To Seaside City in 1930, The most famous loco that made its first run on the New Rockwell Sub was #409. DPR grow into the railroad in 1952 the final lag of track was layed conning Eastwest Sea Lines track to DPR and opening trends up to the port City of Eatherblad. This would however cripple the newly form EWSL railroad as they tried to deny DPR Trackrights past Orngedale. after 15 years of lost revenue EWSL luck ran out and in 1962 they sold 50% of their track rights to DPR, this eased EWSL's losses for 5 more years until they had a huge wrack that cost them to go bankrupt and merge with DPR to in 1970.
This merger boosted DPRs review greatly and became a Class 1 railroad. DPR's prim went on from 1970 to 2000 after which DPR got its 3rd owners in late 2000 and they neglected safety and proper training which lead to huge lawsuits and crippled DPR into delt, DPR sold off 90% of its share to the shortline Dragon Valley Rail in 2003, DPR was complicity Abandoned by 2004. The DVR's profit skyrocketed and so did the demand for more trains however DVR didn't have enough locomotives to meet the overwhelming demand and for the next 10 years would hire out other shortlines to help. The 3 main shortline railroads bout out DPR and revied the grate railroad in 2015 rebuilt DPR from the ground up with new safety guidelines and updated its old fleet of ageing locomotives. DPR Rebuilt its abandoned network and recovered over the next 3 years, DPR took off the revealed overworked DVR, The 4th DPR owners form a partnership with all shortlines forming the new Dracastrey Medland.
Dragons pass is the only route in trainz with its own custom built locomotives & rolling stock all of them being of a kit-bash type design.
