I ran into the problem of adding too many assets and the smooth driving of the route. A train stops every one or two feet running. I expected trouble but the building of the route was so much more fun than running I got carried away. Is there any way of improving the hardware rather than tearing...

I've talked to Jointed Rail and have had letters back and forth with Justin Cornell. The last e-mail from Justin stated The NS Heratage - Int has the same trucks as many of the others in the series and there is nothing wrong with them" To try an resolve this problem I even purchased another...

For the last 10 months I have been unable to run one of the locomotives I bought in the Norfolk and Southern Heritage series. I got tired of waiting for the problem to be resolved so I purchased another Interstate AC4400. Diesel. I tried to install it on my layout and found it would not...

I have a Gateway Computer with 6GB of memory. I've been busy doing scenery in Surveyor since my grandsons gave the game back. I just know tried running a passenger train for my granddaughter and found the movement very jerky and it even stopped a few times for streaming. What do I need to do...

I have now removed all the smaller roads and I only have the two roads that I started the route with. That was over a year ago and the Carz have always been on the route. I have tried every thing I can think of and destroyed a lot of scenery and roads. My Great grand children love the cars more...

The manual in the ts-12 version on page 150 shows a toggle traffic button. The carz have stopped running and I find no such button. I have a [?] button but clicking on this button does nothing when in spline mode. Has anyone had this problem and how did they get the carz to run again.

I have asked about this a number of times. One of the Southern heritage series that I purchased shortly after getting into Trainz was pulled back for a missing dependency. Not too long ago Justin Cornell replied by telling me what the item was. It was a "silver hiAd truck and it was in the kit...

I have been retired for 30 years. I have never had the misfortune of dealing with Windows. When Norton broke with Gates, Gates concentrated on the personal computer market because business and industry had not taken to Windows. Norton went and created a new market to protect the user from the...

You may find this outcome interesting. I was looking over the data on my memory stick and I saw a lot of references to Kuid number 56063. This number was for author Majekear who wrote to me about my interest in 40ft cars. These I thought were the items for the Santa Fe reefers that exited my...

I stayed up til 1:00 a.m running the 48249 - 49922 patch and it never got past the halfway point. I LET IT RUN OVERNIGHT AND THIS MORNING THE MESSAGE ON THE SCREEN SAID IT COULD NOT complete the patch because something else was using the process. What ever that means. I've uninstalled and...

When I tried to start Trainz I was asked to enter my CDKEY which I assumed was the seriel number. This was after I had signed in and was acknowledged. Deisan

I lost my hard drive and had to reload the program. I uninstalled Trainz following instructions and reloaded. I then tried to update the program with the downloads from Shane Turner. When I first entered the program after reloading the computer showed me the program was at 47772 so I started...

Several months ago I purchased the Heritage series of diesels as noted above. Shortly after installing them one of the locos was withdrawn for a missing or in this case "unkown" dependencie. It is shown as kuid2:45324:50208:1. Having reviewed the config file on the other locos in the set but can...

Please excuse the ignorance of a long time Model Railroader. I always thought that if the rails did not line up you were out of gauge. Little did I know that Tranz was ahead of its time with magnetic power that allowed the train to float above the rails. Thanks to all those that helped me to...

It took me almost a year to find that the "Fixed Track" are not the same gauge regardless of the length. Some sections the rail is just slightly wider gauge than other sections of fixed track. The only way to tell the ones that are a slightly wider gauge is to note that the edges have more of a...
