I was wondering how on earth do I get this done, since I created my own routes and sessions on the laptop during the holiday and wanted now to transfer that to my desktop PC at home.

In TRS2006 you save the route as a CDP file and send it to the new PC, and import the CDP onto Trainz via the CMP
this is exactly what I want to know but still need exact instructionsChris,
CMP = Content Manager Plus in TS2006.
CM or CM3.2 = Content Manager in TS2010.

What is a CDP file? Whenever I want to save a route in the simulator I simply click on Save and then the file is created by the programme itself. Is there a way how I must identify the file as a CDP file?

Chris...
Let's assume that your route is called 'chris route' and your session is called 'chris session'. Now...when you first start trainz 2010, you get the launch screen right...it says 'start, options, content, manual etc'. So click on the 'content' tab and after a couple of seconds, content manager will start up.
Now look at the tabs and find the 'today' tab, if you click on that tab there is every chance you will see your route and session as long as you have edited and saved it in the last 24 hours, if not, click on the 'installed' tab instead and type the name of your route into the search window on the left hand side of content manager...in this case, search for 'chris route'
Now once content manager finds it, you'll see it in the window on the right hand side of content manager. Right click on it and choose 'save to CDP'. Choose a place on your hard drive to save this file to and then once you have done...do exactly the same for your session 'ie search for chris session'...right click and save to CDP.
Once you have saved both files...copy them to your memory stick(USB) or whatever you're going to use to transfer them to your other computer(PC).
Now aslong as you have trainz2010 installed on your other computer, do the same...start trainz and select content from the menu. Once it's open, go to the drop down menu 'file/import CDP' and point to the location that you saved your route/session to and remember to import both your route and your session.
Content manager will then import and install your route and session to trainz on your other computer(PC) and you should be good to go.
Hope this is simple enough and that you get it working....
Mart.
