Nice to know some peeps out there are enjoying my scenarios. Perhaps I'm gradually getting better at this route & scenario building stuff, but I'm still learning lots of new things all the time the more I work and experiment with it.

BTW: Most all users report back that this scenario runs ok without any troubles. But, I did get a couple of comments regarding some conflict or error with one of the AI trains.

I believe this only happens if you're driving your train way too slowly and behind schedule, as I approximated some AI trains to start on their paths at certain times according to having the Player train driving towards the upper-limit of posted speed limits when possible (though I did try to give a bit of leeway).

But, basically to avoid the AI conflict path error that could happen if going too slow, try to arrive at your passenger-stop in LarkSpur before the time of 14:19 , (if driving near upper-limit of posted speeds when possible, you can arrive there to your stop in LarkSpur around the time of 14:16), then hopefully in that case the player train should avoid the conflict with the approaching AI train (be sure to wait in LarkSpur at that platform until the AI train passes and the junction-light just up ahead of your train there turns green before proceeding again).

Other than that, I think there are no reported problems with this scenario.

LOL, no worries there for me. I'm always either speeding, or going to fast, or both. !**duh*!!

Route building, now scenarios. I envy your abilities, wish I had the time or the inclination, Don. We really need scenarios for the routes on this sim, especially third party routes.
