Sounds great.

Hope you have a great Easter Sunday.

I've never known the AI B13 type industry tracks to work without those rule commands. Please post back when you've made progress with this. Good luck.

Thanks for the list, Carlo. It has a lot of engines listed that Baldwin made right up to 1955, but unfortunately it doesn't go into the details needed for the engine specs.

I made some adjustments using the 17500000 figure as a baseline for the fuel-energy tag, along with doing the 56% reduction on some other parameters . The fuel and water is going faster, which is what I wanted, but I'm not seeing any changes elsewhere. What I'm hoping for is to have to use...

I'm not sure I'm following me either but here it goes. Since the Trainz default uses the value of 31401000 for fuel energy, that means the 17500000 figure which you suggested changing to, is a decrease of 55.73 %. If the rest of the current parameters associated with fuel energy are based on...

Thanks, actually it would be a decrease of 56 % for all the other variables directly connected to fuel energy. I'll give it a shot. I did a search for the Baldwin 2-6-0 Moguls for any year, and I couldn't find any info specific enough.

Can the fuel-energy tag just get added in, or will it be rejected or ignored ? Unfortunately, I don't have access to the real numbers to rewrite the all the figures for the motor and steam containers. Assuming the Trainz default uses the value of 31401000 for fuel energy, that means the 17500000...

Here's one of the engine specs I'm using. I'm not sure which item listed is the " fuel-energy" to plug in the 17500000 that you suggested that I try. description "Enginespec for woodburning 1869 Baldwin 2-6-0 Mogul Boiler pressure: 130 psi Cylinders: 16x24 Drivers...

Thanks for this great info. I'll start on this sometime tomorrow and post again on my progress. What is the Billegulla spreadsheet ? I'm not looking for something easy to drive, but challenging and realistic as possible when pulling passengers and freight up grades going up to 1.8%.

Thanks, I'll run some tests on this. Actually I'm using wood burning engines, but there is no script for woodburners, so I have to use whatever parameters that applies to coal. Normally, for one example, in real life, leaving the firebox door open when the engine is stopped with help keep the...

For steam engines, in general, which parameter(s) can I adjust in the engine specs to be able to go through coal and water faster than than what's it currently doing ? Overall, I'd like to get it to correlate also with having the boiler pressure go up when adding fuel, but I'll take it one...

I view it as urban sight pollution and vandalism. If these punks want to be "artistic" then maybe they should ask their mommies for a coloring book.
