NEWB - kind of - a few questions?

@ scottb613: TS is very much alive and kicking. The amount of free stuff from libraries like ours and from the Steam Workshop is staggering. Payware DLC is cheap if you can wait for periodic sales.

I'm a little confused (what else is new). Is there some issue with a free offering of the sound for the RS3 that's causing a issue or is that sound from this ESU outfit and was used without permission? Or is this about some other locomotive? Can someone help me out?

Essentially the ESU sounds were used without permission and sold with the rs3 pack by default

Hi Folks,

Timing is everything - the locomotives are back "in stock" on Searchlight - I'll have to try one. Probably the BNSF SD40-2 as I have Marias.

Thanks for all the additional information - much to digest - much to figure out.

I picked up the B&O Sub as well - couldn't resist. WOW. What an absolutely beautiful route. Seeing Cumberland in all its glory compared to what we had in MSTS - is like night and day.

Hah - it's easy to drop cash on this side of the fence - March Madness cost me like $100.00 as I needed the content to get Minerman's Bergen Route working - THAT really blew me away. To those unfamiliar - the route may look like an extremely detailed nice looking route - to someone who's been riding those rails for almost 30 years - he NAILED every little detail - it's truly uncanny. This is still a relatively cheap hobby compared to Flight Sim where I spend a great deal of cash.

Regards,
Scott
