Yes, it will, but some of the content will have errors in '09 or '10 that need to be fixed.

If so how do you fix the errors?? I have never tried to fix errors...

Post some errors and we'll see what we can do.

Ok right now I am downloading some layouts from 2004 so as soon as I run CMP in 2009 and get any errors I will post them here...

'04 layouts will usually run unmodified in compatibility mode.

2 or my 2004/2006 routes are in-built to 2009/2010 and both run.

My TRS2004 layouts work at least as flawlessly in TS2009 as they did in TRS2004. It helps that they use built in content only.

My Route, with lot's of content from all over the World content, runs very nicely in 09 (compatibility mode), but I am not updating to SP4 until I read that there are no problems.

Thanks for all the help from every one I really like this forum allot of help here for those that don't know how to things work....

i have 3 large layouts that were started in 04 and moved into 09 without a hitch. as a matter of fact the building has speeded up with 09 tools.
i also have to run them in compatibility mode but they work very well

My 2004 layouts - some published, some not - work in 2009 and 2010. Some use built-in assets only and I see that with these some trees are replaced automatically with better versions. Some use custom content, and I list these using TrainzObjects on the 2004 layout and make sure that anything needed (whether downloads or my own creations) are imported using CM before importing the layout.
