    Can consists assigned to a portal be changed "outside" of in-game portal properties ?

    Thanks JCitron ! I will look into that, it does sound like something I could make use of. @MasterTracklayer I often do quick and dirty programming in VBA or yes even AutoHotKey when I’m working on proof of concept of procedures I later expand on. Bottom line, however I get there it will work...

I can do a one-time setup of a whole day's worth of scheduled trains (all generically named CON01, CON02, etc). Then, outside of Trainz, before I load...

Basically the goal is a railfanning operation where I can just watch the various consists pass. My wish is to load the portals...
