I noticed that Plus was available in the product downloads yet I only bought Trainz 22 PE last year. I downloaded it and waited, and booted it and logged in and it worked. I thought you had to pay for a subscription in order for it to work? And I was able to download the N3V Amtrak Superliners for nothing. I can boot the game and create a new route as well. I thought maybe they gave me access to the Plus download because I bought the more expensive Trainz 22. I was just wondering why I had access to it, but if it was a mistake, I didn't want to alert the higher ups like Tony and Zec to it if I wasn't really supposed to have it. The subscription costs over $100 a year. The Superliners are much better than the ones by JosefPav and PerRock. They have better interiors and the windows are transparent from the outside. I'm wondering if I can use them in regular Trainz 22 by saving them as cdp's and importing.
How is Plus working when I didn't pay for it?

Did you purchase it while they had an offer on, like free standard Plus for so long.

There was an offer, if you paid for the latest PE, you got a free year of Plus.
Oh, a year. Maybe that is why it is enabled on my account, why I was able to download the installer and run it. But, I wanted it mainly to get the nice Amtrak Superliners. I guess those are incompatible with Trainz 22 PE and any route I build in Plus will be incompatible with 22 PE as well and I will lose access to the Amtrak set and the route that I build in Plus in a year until I subscribe. I didn't realize there was an offer for a free year of Plus if I bought the latest version of PE. Was that a limited time offer?

It was a limited time offer. The routes you create in Plus is supposed to be compatible with PE, however if you create a HD Terrain route,PE will have to convert to 5m grid for you to edit.

Hmm! I never got Trainz Plus as an offer when I purchased TRS22 PE on Steam. Must be for users who brought TRS22 PE via the Trainz Store!
Not to worry, I still got some awesome stuff when I brought TRS22 PE

I bought my Trainz22PE just before Christmas and didn`t get Plus either. I believe that the free Plus offer had already expired by then. I did get a nice deal on the price of 22PE, though, through an offer that they e-mailed to me. (I don`t know if the deal was open to everyone, or just people who had received the e-mail, which probably went out to a lot of lapsed users.) Amongst the "awesome stuff" that I got with mine was a thirty-day First Class Ticket. I tried to make heavy use of it, and think that I did pretty well in that department.
