need session help/advice

[trainman1963]

i downloaded a few routes from the dls but ive found most dont have any sessions. i can quick drive but they dont always have trains setup. i have no idea how to even begin to create a session, let alone design one. im not sure what tasks to create based on whats on the route. is there a good tutorial on session creation. i did dl krashnburne and there were several sessions for those. thanks

Sessions are easy to create, all you need to do is place your train(s), assign drivers and commands and then go to quick drive. Start off by finding out what industries are on the route, and place trainz that can service those industries, then give them the proper commands, say...to drive to coal mine, load coal, drive to power plant, unload coal, rinse repeat... I usually place cars at industries along the way, and give myself a smallish power unit to go pick up empties. I usually place this unit in a yard, and then spend the rest of my time happily dodging the longer consists as I do my job.
