NOTE TO SELF! - This is NOT A Mod or WIP Mod for ATS, This is simply a map concept for Maine. PLEASE! If you are from Maine and think I should add something to the map (Missing Photo Trophies, Viewpoints, Monuments, Landmarks, Depots, Factories, Manufacturing Centers, ECT.) PLEASE TELL ME!!! I am willing to still be updating this map for you guys! (I know its just a map and not an actual mod, but I want to be able to add stuff for more realism because, as I said, I am not from Maine.) I would like to be able to improve on my images, I'm only a teen doing this in my free time out of love for ATS and SCS Software as a Studio.

THINGS ADDED/CHANGED -

Added a new labeled area - The Northern Maine Woods that have lumber mills and log stations. It is a labeled area however, it has no fast travel/garages, just depots.

You might notice some new Tree Icons, these are entry points into the Woodlands. These can only be accessed if you have a log trailer/are going pick up a logging trailer. You will need to pay a toll to enter.

Hello All!
As someone who is a passionate ATS Fan and really cannot wait for more states to be added into ATS, I have decided on a new project of mapping (most) of the United States in the ATS Style, with roads being 1/20th scale and Cities/Towns being a 1/3rd scale, I plan to do this with states currently that are not Announced.
I have decided to change things up a little, after doing North Dakota and Mississippi, I wanted to start on states that would be added way later into ATS' lifecycle of map development. States on the East Coast, Essentially, I want my concepts to remain relevant for a bit longer, considering it will likely take a good amount of time for SCS to reach Maine.
Their are 10 Cities Included in this Map.
Augusta
Portland
Rumford
Rockland
Bangor
Greenville
Machias
Houlton
Presque Isle
Fort Kent
Northern Maine Woods
I also factored in Cities that are not labeled on the map such as
Lewiston
Brunswick
Ellsworth
Calais
Ashland
Dover-Foxcroft
I do not really know if more marked cities would work, specially Lewiston and Brunswick because I don't want to make the map too crowded. I might add Bar Harbor in the next update after a few days.
I do not yet have any Viewpoints, Photo Trophies, or garages marked yet (I will save that for viewer feedback and more).
I have changed how the cities and depot layouts are from my previous 2 states, For ND and Mississippi, I would use scaled up (from 1/20th to 1/3rd) satelitle images to use for city and depot layouts. Now depots and roads around them are made to 1-1 scale (This is why they pop out more in game and on this concept map)
Their are NO Gas Stations or Rest Stations Marked (Remember, its just a map, I am not adding EVERY Location that relates to game mechanics.)
Anyway, hope you guys/girls enjoy and Please do leave feedback! I greatly appreciate and enjoy communicating with people on project I am working!
Enjoy, Have a Good Day/Night - Myles.

In-state double haul from Grand Junction, CO to Alamosa, CO

$14,545 payout & paying $53/mi from XPO Logistics

relatively new to the game, bought the international from the used market and realized i could trade it in for a kenworth or peterbuilt. I like the 389 and w900 but i have a soft spot for international trucks for some reason so im wondering if its worth it to trade in or save up to buy one as a second truck
