I'd just like to nominate TS19 as quite possibly the most useless piece of software I have ever purchased! You start a session without a train to drive, how more ridiculous is that!

Dear Tony, I fully understand that some level of decorum is necessary on any chat site like this, but! It appears to me, that with your rather draconian approach to it all, that any inward negative...

I understand where your coming from but, 5 meter board texture application is far superior than 10. As a route builder the manipulation of ground is also far superior in 5 meter. it is quite possible...

Have you noticed that the rifts and faults seem to gather at the very edge, then make a beeline towards the centre of the layout? Maybe like the St Andrea's fault line in California, when you cram...

Hi Guys, I posted something a while back as suggesting that merging routes was the reason behind deep bomb craters and giant terrain Christmas trees appearing in your route. I can now confirm that...

You are spending your cash on a menu to spend the rest of your cash! quite simple.

Hi guys, I've been studying Richard Pulleyn's track diagrams and I have noticed that most inner home and starter advance signals have the white diamond TC fitted to them. I understand that these...

For those of us old enough to remember going into a store, browsing and choosing PC software to buy, or more precisely buying a license to use that software. I now get the feeling that I am just...

I am in total agreement with you. When I see the railway system in my country at the turn of the century, I can only see the blood, sweat and tears that went into building it. Along comes a character...

Thanks for the link, but I have a PC that is twice the spec of the minimum requirements and it can not even run TANE at an acceptable FPS. It's the same old onion, the game costs 20 dollars but you...

What kind of PC grunt is needed to push this incredible looking version of Trainz to an acceptable FPS?
Thanks

I recommend that you create a route to simply learn how to build tunnels! use the Westwood filter and you can see how things fit together. Spline tunnels are easy but a pain in the ass, they never...

Cheers guys, you never stop learning in the worlds of trains and trainz, fascinating stuff! Most of my routes are UK retro routes from the 50's and 60's, so for anyone who is interested in the same,...

Thanks for the explanation. Cripes, I still write down Google earth measurements, then transfer them to my route, I feel like a caveman after reading your reply!

Hi John, can you expand your acronyms for all to understand, TransDEM, DEM, I am not familiar with those terms. I can only assume that you mean layouts that are built to google earth accuracy, or...

Thank you for your valuable tips. A row of blank base boards between the two make great sense as any conflict between the two routes is centred on the blank canvas and geographical faults do not...

Hi guys, I am looking for battlefield tips on merging routes from experienced soldiers! I understand that routes are the geography of any given layout, the layers are numbered junctions, named...

Hi all, I was not sure what train sim to buy as it is getting all too confusing. Microsoft and Dovetail games seem to be hi-res driver only with, buy add on's infinitum! I like the option of building...
