........is it possible in Trainz?

Stow-Cum-Quy is a small 'Model Railway' type layout I built for my Dad to use on Christmas Day. It is based on the actual station situated just outside this little village located a few miles North East of Cambridge. Dad has lived in Stow-Cum-Quy for many years but unfortunately he has...

Cootes Lane MPD is a *Model Railway* type layout. I created the route because I wanted somewhere to 'show case' the excellent BR Blue period locomotive reskins by tmz06003 and others. The layout is set sometime in the 1970's and doesn't have a set location/region. As I said above, the layout...

I've managed to replace most of the content I lost when my HD crashed. But there are a couple of things that I cant find again on the DLS. Hopefully somebody will recognise what I am trying to describe and give a clue as to what to search for or perhaps even the KUID if I'm really lucky. Rusty...

I seem to have developed a problem with some of the UK diesal loco's I've downloaded. Well, I should say that I'm certain the problem isn't with the content, but my PC. The Drivers in some of my loco's (BR Class 55 Deltic and Paul Hobbs Class 04 Drewary Shunter - freeware version) now have...

I have a small Engine Shed on the Branch Line Route I'm creating at the moment. It houses the Branch pilot which, until now, has been a steam locomotive. But the steam loco has just been joined by one of those new fangled diesel shunters. My question is, how would the diesel have been fuelled...

Those that have seen my routes will know that I prefer to use a set of 10 trees created by 'Trunda'. A short while before my Hard Drive crashed I discovered that this set had been extended considerably. The only problem is that these extra trees were not released by Trunda, but another User...

Is anybody aware of a ground texture that matches the brown trackbed colour used on FMA's Elevated Track system? Thanks for your help Chris

Anybody going to the NEC for the Warely show in December? If so, does anybody know the nearest hotel to the NEC? I know there are a couple close by, but when i look at the maps I seem to get confused about where exactly they are in relation to the Exhibition halls. Ideally the hotel would be...

Has anybody created DLR content for Trainz? I should stress, that this isn't in any way a request, but I'm surprised that I haven't seen anything. Come to think of it, I don't think I've even seen it discussed on these Forums. As I said, not a request, just something that occured to me. Chris

Does anybody know what colour(s) the Wagon Sheets were for the LNER, LMS, SR and BR please? Based on Johnny211's open wagon, I'm assuming that the GWR was green. Chris - LCH

I'm having another one of my mad moments again. I'm trying to lay some track that starts in 6mtr deep cutting and slowly rises to 0mtrs over approx 1 mile. But I keep doing something wrong, and I can't figure out what. I've used the 'Smooth Spline' tool, but the track drops to by 0.20mtrs at...

I have three routes on the DLS, with two more coming soon. So far they've all been received pretty well by the community. But the fact is, my track work is pants, especially on curved sections. For a while now I've been laying 'Fixed' track first, and then replacing it with normal track of my...

Hi all, I'm looking for a light source to place in Surveyor that provides a kind of yellowy/orange glow/light rather than the white light many Lamps/Lights give in Trainz. Something like you might get from a Paraffin Lamp or a very old fashioned light bulb. A light that 'flickers' would also be...

There was a guy offering to scan track plans from the GER ENGINE SHEDS books but I think this was on the old forum. Was that you? Or do you remember/know who it was? Chris
