Oh lordy, how hard it is to find something one needs on DLS.
I happen to be working on a danish route, and wanted some danish trains to run on it. CMP is of little or no help most times, so I just started searching (and searching, and searching) on DLS. First I found little, and started to grumble about the "lazy danes" that didn't make any trains (sorry guys). Then I asked around here in the forum, and got some great help and pointers, and ended up finding a whole host of trains from good ole Denmark, including special item cars, great! I'm still amazed at what all people can create with this, and very grateful that somebody (including the hard-working danes :hehe:) does!
The thing is, 90% of the time, there is no mention of "Denmark" or "Danish" in either title or description (when there even is a description). And one finds stuff with all kinds of names, which one doesn't know about till one actually finds it. There's a catch 22!
I imagine that people looking for specific trains for other countries might have the same problem.
So please, all of you gifted people out there that are talented enough to actually make these great trains and cars, and kind enough to share it with the rest of us, do you think you could PLEASE add the country of origin in the description, that would make life so much easier.
