creating a train wreck

[trainman1963]

is it possible to create a train wreck in TS12? i want to make a route that has just enough track and such to setup the needed scenario. when running some routes, ive purposely run into backs of other trains and such without the expected result, usually they just end up pushing the other train. i want to recreate some of history greatest wrecks and change the scenarios around and see if the results are different but im not sure if this program has those capabilities or not.
thanks

No, The way trainz wreck in this game is not so prototipical. running two trains into each other does not cause things like fire, cars scattered everywhere, or any chaos like that. they pretty much just "bump" and you get a series of yellow/orangish X's over the trains involved. not much more.

Setting Derailment Realizum to "Realistic" may give you scenes like on "Runaway Train","Atomic Train" "Unstoppable".

Short segments of BNSF50 Invisatrack set at odd angles, and varried gradient heights can produce static scenes like this:

Visting reletives kids loved the Trainz simulator, but left the NS Reading Lines route a shambles of ,recked trains in the river. Although they did it unintentionally, they were quite good at it. Surprisingly they wanted to run old steam locomotives, and of course the 687 mph A23 Jet Sled. http://i525.photobucket.com/albums/c...Screen_010.jpg

Set up a bridge and remove the connecting track joint, and manually drive at speed, you will get a derailment. Train cars will be all over the place.
