Many thanks Graeme!
Though given that i'm running the north american addition of 2019, i fear that most of the assets i'll be needing might be out of my reach. But i'm willing to give it a shot!
And, if you are feeling especially adventurous, you can merge in <kuid:224165:1144> Wangaratta-Whitfield by ntesdorf
for some narrow gauge action.

How well does that route run in 19?And, if you are feeling especially adventurous, you can merge in <kuid:224165:1144> Wangaratta-Whitfield by ntesdorf

Cause i've tried a few of his other routes and they've been a little bit........off
Then i must be doing something wrong here, cause almost every route i've tried from him (including Wangaratta) have ended up with assets floating hundreds of feet off the ground
And one more thing. Just how big is the download file for ARTC Main South - VR North? cause the download for that thing is creeping along like an overloaded coal drag!

If it doesn't have to be specifically Victorian Railways this one might do:

It does cater for both steam and diesel.

How long. Dunno. This is a high speed run on the electrified version:
It takes about 17 minutes at a suicidal 70+mph. By my calculations that's about 20+ miles.
Anyway, try it if you like. All content is either built-in or from the Download Station. There ain't too many downloads to capture.

Port Ogden & Northern. Funny you should ask. Earlier this morning I was thinking about that route and how difficult it would be to update to TRS19 standards.
Maybe it's not all that difficult. But certainly it would be extremely time consuming. I'd keep the basic track layout, though the yards would need considerable revision. TRS19 track. A full PBR 3D re-texture. TurfFX grasses. SpeedTrees. What to do with the AI -- which was one of the "features" of the original.
I'll think about it a while longer. The one thing I do like about Jim "Sniper" Ward's MSTS route was the way the scenery changed after passing through tunnels -- green forested areas to barren desert landscapes to ... .
Maybe I just need to pluck up some courage. I'll keep thinking.

There is a bug in TRS19 which causes older routes to behave like that - there is a thread somewhere describing the problem - and it is on a list of things to fix. The solution is to bring the route into TRS19 via TANE until patched.
For the OP, It would probably be a wise move to pick up TANE next time it's on sale. 2 more Aussie routes and it will have most of the missing deps for my VR routes. Not to mention the hundreds of TRS19 routes which were started in TANE and also rely on it for deps in 19. That's a problem I've now encountered in building the NSW South coast route.

It looks like TANE's $19.99 US right now on steam. Should i take a swing at it or wait for the sale? Also, How would i move that content form TANE to 19, or is that even possible?
There's also a bit of an issue with space on my system as i've got a few other large games installed along side TRS19.
So all i've gotta do is buy TANE, install it, transfer the content to TRS19 then uninstall TANE?
