More British Routes?

[chris2001trainz2010]

Afternoon, everyone.

I was wondering if any other '50s and '60s British routes have been made for Trainz. I already have a few, such as the S&C, PLL, and most of Dick Turpin's routes, but i was wondering if there are any more prototypical routes out there.

Some notable areas i like to drive in MSTS include Bristol, Leicester, Birmingham, and Derby.

And yes, there are a few I know of, particularly the S&D, but routes like those are more suited for TS04. I'm mainly looking for newer routes, if that makes any sense.

I think there is a version of the Great Central on the DLS, albeit something of a WIP.

At some point I quite fancy doing a version of the SMJ route (which I built eons ago for MSTS) once I am satisfied TANE is running sweet and happy, which it seems to be. Probably not the whole route as I don't have the stamina for 60 mile epochs these days, but the "core" from Blisworth to Stratford certainly a possibility.

Search for routes by Driver_Col in the DLS. I think they are in the time period you want and I have found them excellent.

I've tried the GCR; it seems like a nice route, but i remember my PC having trouble running it smoothly. I'll try again though.

I've used some of his routes in the past, although they're not specifically what i'm looking for.

Here's a list of routes I've downloaded and then merged & added-to, to make larger prototypical UK routes. Some of the spellings might be slightly wrong, for which apologies in advance.

To see if a route appeals, I find it best to download that one route, have a look then either keep or discard. If I discard, I use Content Manager to list all of the dependencies downloaded with the route by date/time (not the same as all route dependencies, some of which you may already have downloaded previously). I then delete all these dependencies to keep the Trainz database from growing like Topsy.

Once you discover routes you like, search Content Manager using the author's name to see if there's any other routes of his/hers you like.

Thanks, i'll be sure to look into those.

Although I don't have an FCT, I've heard and seen that Twilight of Steam is an excellent route for early BR Green freight operation.

T'was quite a big d/load but is not showing when I open T:ANE, any ideas on why it's failing?

Scratch that, have it now
