Can someone, please, provide me with routes containing some of the following locos steam PRR: (S1 Duplex, 1lS, AT&SF 2900, H10s and E6s)?
Thanks in advance, greetings.

From there I have downloaded them, but they do not bring routes, that's why I ask.

"Horseshoe Curve" on Steam would be a good start.

You will have an issue running the Duplex on Horseshoe Curve because the front pilot does not pivot, prototypical. There is a modification to fix this if you want.

@fllebrez
You should just learn how to create your own scenarios.
The easiest are freeroams. Activate the package which includes the loco, place the loco on the tracks add a driver's icon and go.
Disadvantage is that you have to check and set all switches by yourself.
That would be a nice start.

Patch:
I think AmericanSteam posted an image what to change.
Here you have the file:
Bogies.zip

Goto Railworks\Assets\DSGDDR\RailSimulatorUS\RailVehicles\Steam\PRR S1 Duplex\Default\Bogies\
Unpack the zip there and let it override.

Kris, I don't know how to create scenarios. Why do you think I ask if anyone knows routes or scenarios that contemplate those locomotives?

This is the Front Bogi bin file I used. It changes the horizontal offset from 0 to -3. I did not change the rear. It is set to 3.26205.

Here is a simple guide on how to create scenarios. Choose free roam. The simplest and easiest way.

A second option is here: https://railworksamerica.com/index.php/ ... ial_rudolf
Reviewing these guides is important because it will familiarize you with terminology used and where to go in the editor. This will help communicate any issues you are having when asking for guidance. The first step is the longest.

I appreciate your good intentions, but I am a retired person (I am 76 years old) and what I want is to enjoy TS without complicating my life, so I asked if there was any route that contemplated these machines.
I repeat my thanks for your interest. Greetings

As of yet, there are no routes for the engines, but you might find some routes on the Steam Workshop. Other than that I suggest just running them on the BLE, since it's at least in era to a point.

alas, we have has no communication with the OP since his last communication on June 27, 2023. I do hope that he hasn't given up as he appeared to be quite frustrated.
I personally will be turning 76 this year, please be kind. !*snd-help*!
