I cant do that because this is part of a computer rebuild. I need everything external of the game somehow :(

I don't plan on continuing to use TANE, just don't know what version to get next when i feel the itch. i just want to make sure all the stuff Ive got is usable.

Its time for new hard drives here and I'm looking to save all the stuff I've hoarded collected. Mostly looking to get basically everything out of T:ANE, as that is where most of the stuff I can no longer get is, and onto an external drive. I'm just not sure the best way to do it and looking for...

There are a few videos of it, but I think this one might have the best sound. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRfUSQq4shM For context, on its way back home, the manifest in front of 4014 stalled on a grade, and dispatch asked if they would be willing to help shove it over the hill. Clearly they...

Cool to this still in use, but I have to say, the ramp that changes the cars direction looks like it fits more on an old HO scale layout than a real working dock! Ill bet that push's the trucks Bolster to there limit! :hehe: Very god vid quality though!

Youtube threw this at me and I couldn't help but grin. 71 year old little switcher, watched dieselization, many scars (see number boards missing, chunk of the plow/pilot smashed off form what looks like a very bad rail), with paint from 2 fallen flags showing, and it still putting around moving...

I guess the White Pass and Yukon is selling some locomotives? Unless its a (poorly though out) scam? Not sure, but still interesting. http://www.sterlingrail.com/classifieds/classified.php?id=27625 On a related note, that website is the one stop shopping center for buying a hunk of steel worth...

While bored and perusing https://www.openrailwaymap.org (great site, highly recommend) and google maps in tandem I found myself looking around Butte and stumbled on the old NP Homestake pass line east of town. I cant help but see that the track is still there, paved over in a few place's but...

Ok, got a bit of a debate going on in the model train club I'm a part of and am looking for support. I'm 99% sure my position is right but hey, never hurts to ask. Layout is a Free-mo modular deal and the member who owns a intermodal+ yard is looking to install some signals. Its modular so this...

The GWR Autocoach. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=whp50RnZ5s8 I... didn't know this was a thing. Always figured it was possible but didn't know some madman made it a thing. Brings up the question if anyone tried this method to link 2 locomotives, Smooth power application from both loco's...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzhMueeqm7k It would seem WMSR snuck this in as a new years gift! Though I don't think she is fully ready yet, mainly due to steam leaking out of place's (my admittedly untrained eye says) shouldn't have steam leaking out. Most notably the right rear engine...

I always wondered if anyone tried something like this. Figured with all the nutty locomotives and there engineers, not to mention brake failures resulting in derailments on steep grades, SOMEONE had to think of it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-pressure_brake Seems it wasn't used too...

Just wondering what happened to the Legacy of the BN route. I remember that there was plans to expand it modularly like how Midwest grain was, but after the (much loved) V2 remake, there has been nothing. I had kind of forgotten about it until a necro'd thread had some screen shots of either a...

So a while back a decent amount of JR rolling stock stopped making track sounds in TANE and I've been trying, unsuccessfully, to fix it. I believe I've narrowed it down to a truck used on the affected cars, have tried to fix it, and cant seem to make it work. <kuid2:45324:50203:9> S-2 Truck 100...

So! I see that TRS19 is on sale and I am thinking of picking it up, however I've got a few doubts/ questions about it. T:ANE, to put it bluntly, has never worked right for me. While i expect bugs with all games i play ( tis the nature of gaming nowadays, and it keeps the blood pressure down) It...
