No, in the matter of getting some spicy interest back, these two pay ware routes are totally stand alone (on top of the MSTS standard package) and allow me to reposition myself as the blind engineer here. like the beloved NE Corridor, have so much else that must be plugged in with them that getting those routes fully updated is a task in and of itself for me.
#MSTS ROUTE FREE#
Thank good ness for the great free downloads here and assistance at TRAIN-SIM. Summing up this quick review of the A&O sub, I want to say this is not the kind of route I’d normally go for, North East Corridor being a greater favorite in the past and Sand patch, Tehacapi and concomitants along with Bridge line being right up there for me.
#MSTS ROUTE PASSWORD#
In my big MSTS crash here, I lost the embedded password to reinstall this route and the author, Adre Ming, upon receipt of my pleading bleeding email was very kind and prompt in the matter of re-supplying me with my password. there are many up hills and down hills, one has to be ready with a “touch of the pipe” (the instructions refer to gentle braking) and one has to conserve air too. the whistle sounds great as you rumble through a crossing. I can see myself getting familiar with it. ĭetails are not the strong point for this legally blind person. nothing to stop us from leaving half the train down in Podunk or whatever the last town before the big hill is. Up by the main line, there is a fantastic last hill to climb and this is daunting as anything. Without a train I’d say it takes not so long to pull from one end to the other on this route. There are tutorial runs supplied which give a feel for the whole road. Seems we are to pick up cars at various industries and take them out to the main line. The work is cut out for us! I don’t particularly like switching activities, but they are here and mercifully simple to even me. Country stores, lumber yards and (shudder) chicken processing plants abound. In the cab, I can almost smell the sweat and steel. I get the feeling while driving around on this railroad, that I am working. Sometimes you hear sounds like boiling water! There isn’t much AI traffic, but that is certainly understandable in light of the given history of the A&O sub. It isn’t a long road, but the stock is aged and the engines putt and thump like an old tractor.

It makes me feel like inviting friends over to see. I found it to be a lot like the roads I used to see depicted in the center fold of “Model Railroader.” The related industries, the history and lore.

The makers of this road call it a V-Scale Model railroad. In some instances, scenes presented are like great water color renditions. but I do see that the engines and cars on this road look like very good pictures. I hardly know for sure what photo realistic means. I say, “generally” not to reflect on if it is or isn’t, but because I am a low end user. This equipment is generally photo realistic and a pleasure to look at. I’d found it to be very interesting! The rolling stock is by the same MSTS Artist who did the Budd cars.
#MSTS ROUTE DOWNLOAD#
Oh I did download the great free routes, from TRAIN-SIM Port Ogden, the new, improved North East Corridor, and the new improved Acela, etc., and I did certainly get ConBuilder and TrainStore but it soon came time to choose on the pay ware routes.īefore “The Great Crash” (or shredding or chew up) here, I had just purchased the A&0 sub. I found myself looking at a very clean slate.
#MSTS ROUTE UPDATE#
downloading the MSTS update and rolling stock update. In every case, now that I think about it, the Default Routes are not satisfactory.Īfter getting myself back to square one. I’m talking now about a person who is starting over with MSTS. I’m not presenting here about the trials and tribulations therein. I still had all the routes and data from earlier days, but none of it was working any more, an backups do not help. This presentation is probably of interest only to those of us who operate Microsoft's Train Simulator, known as MSTS.Ībout a month and a half ago, in the midst of transferring to new systems here, I trashed practically everything I had of MSTS, with the exception of the original CDs. Here is a review of the two routes, A&O Sub, and Niagara Corridor. MSTS Review of Two Routes Two Route Reviews
