Mmmm late November is way out of the question.

4 weeks maximum I think and release blog post it's still early we need a few more blog posts on Colorado before it releases. With Idaho we got Boise blog post a month before Idaho released. So my guesses are 12/19 November which is 3-4 weeks away so 4 weeks maximum

I think the main reason Julesburg is provided is for us-385, which along with I-76 will be the route between Sterling and Lamar. I think only the areas around the us-385/I 76 interchange would be provided. The actual parts of the town, if any, will likely come with Nebraska. However it is impossible to tell for sure at this stage.

Yep, i also think we only get to see the area around the interchange, not Julesburg itself. At that intersection, we will probably get one of the gas stations there
and possibly the rest area of the Colorado Welcome Center:

On the leaked maps you can see a relatively large, bright, rectangular thingy just west of US-385 halfway between Julesburg and Burlington where you naturally
ask yourself what this could be. Could it be this huge cattle farm a few miles west of Wray on US-34?

I mean location wise, this could fit. Even though i'm still very sceptical that we get livestock with Colorado, we could already see in a blog post about Colorado
that such farms will definitely come (the Bushnell farm near Lamar iirc). Speculations, speculations...

@ASUSTechSupport @Quark
Thank you for clearing that up for me just when I saw the maps people had posted wondered why it the road network went so far north Eastern now I understand. Was reading about depots being away from marked cities and looked at the Google maps and that intersection was far from Sterling. We might get a cattle farm between Burlington and Sterling up by that intersection. It would make sense to have those cattle farms up over there seems like a lot of space to work with. Burlington will be the furthest East we can go and hoping it brings livestock. Exactly speculations, speculations if we do get livestock I would like to see a blog post about it and be more in depth.

@Quark that's a massive feedlot. It wasn't I zoomed in and seen and realized how massive that place is. I'm really looking forward to getting livestock and meat processing facilities. After we get Colorado and Texas. I'm really looking forward to getting Kansas just so I can haul out of Dodge City. I hauled a lot of beef out of the two different facilities in that town and. also Liberal.

@busted85 I use to drive for National Carriers and spent a lot of time in Dodge and Liberal. For those that don't know National Carriers is owned by National Beef. National Carriers is somewhat a private fleet as we mainly hauled beef from National Beef to the east coast. When I was there I would take beef east and bring candy back to Texas. A lot of times we would load bananas out of Galveston and run that to Denver then head back to plant from there.
