Thank you for this, John, this is something for a session once the route is ready for one. Ron

Apologies for the late reaction..I am down with a flu and not happy about that at all. Anyway, I browsed Amazon for these books, both copies are available ( second hand of course ) but the prices are ridiculous, one is 55 euro (The interurban era) and the other is 157 euro (U$ 58 and U$166) ...

Wow, both of you, many thanks for all the information, it gives me a good insight in prewar (interurban) rr traffic in New England. On30, your info and that blog helps a me lot , thanks. John, as usual you are a treasure chest of information, I'll look at the Trainz Forge link and the usernames...

Hi guys, obviously I don't live in the US as you can see from the title of this post, so the answer to my question could be simple to you but I guarantee it isn't for me. Here we go: I have almost finished building my ( large) fictional interurban rr. route with a mainline connection (B&M, NH)...

Am I the only one finding it extremely annoying that many splines ( not all ) now have to be treated as track ? When building a route I guess it isn't much of a bother but when 'renovating' an already existing route it is a major pain in the arse, it was perfect before ( I have no idea when this...

Today I received this email: Hello, I would like to remind you about the impending end of the SLW website. There are only a dozen or so days left to buy models. Unfortunately, due to the negligible interest in steam locomotive models, the SLW website will not be rebuilt...

The NEC is one of the few routes I like in the US, mostly because , as I live in Europe where passenger traffic is much more a thing than in the US, I am used to heavy passenger transport instead of freight lines. My interest in TRS is in creating and running combined passenger/freight time...

Hello all, Some time ago I stumbled upon a website that has a decent collection of downloadable US interurbans from the 1st half of the last century among other early traction locomotives . I didn't bother to bookmark the link and of course I want to download some assets from there now..I...

People have complained that after installing a layout some objects are high up in the air instead of positioned at the ground level. I solve this issue as follows: use the copy/paste tool to select an area on the layout, copy the selection ( doesn't have to be exactly under the floating...

Hello all, I am facing an issue and I have no idea how to solve it, I am building a route and today when I continued editing it, the altitude ( which was 0.00 yesterday) changed, it is now 1008.00 I have no idea what caused this behavior, when I open the Topology tab in Surveyor the value in...

Can someone pls. tell me which ones to use for a route I am building, I want to keep performance as high as possible and still having good looking trees and other foliage... When my route is finished ( will still take at least a few months), I plan to make it available on the DLS so performance...

Hai fellow Trainzers.. I need a simple 'signal' for a WIP route. What I am looking for is a trigger activated signal that will make a yellow light flash and stops blinking when a second trigger is actived by a train The signal should only have that yellow light . Blinking when activated and no...

Hello guys, I remember I once used a signal or switch lever (not sure anymore, I am getting old and my memory fails me sometimes) with which I could set two separated speed restrictions for a switch, one for the diverging track and one for the non diverging track. I totally forgot it's name and...

Hi all, I am having an issue with Quick Portal Manager from pguy. I have two portals, and I want to use them both with QPM but I don't see any option in the QPM window to select more than one portal. I have one portal working with QPM, it emits consists at the times I want it to but the second...
