Hi, Jamie, welcome. Guess you like Barstow to San Bernadino (presuming it's US stuff you like) You'll also like Toripony's free C&O Allegheny route: http://alleghany.weebly.com/ (you may need the Big Boy locomotive) So much here, lots of it freeware. Best Railworks website there is. !!*ok*!! !*salute*!

Hey bigtrains, I just got RW this past weekend and am slowly working my way through things. As most will tell you, I like big heavy trains. I had monster scenarios for MSTS. Granted, I like the -2 era, so AC's generally do not get used too much. Give me time and we shall see what I can come up with.

BTW, I do not charge for my stuff. Though I may use payware.

Lone Wolf Activities (Guess I am gonna have to change that to Scenarios)

Hey bigtrains and Kev, welcome to Railworks America, and also Railworks 2. *&!welcome!&*

@Bigtrains: AI's are a little moe advanced in Railworks than MSTS, in that they are handled based on class. Despite what is aid on other forums about the AI, it does have plenty of intelligence to it. Now a few things of importance with the AI's

Things in common with MSTS include the fact that AI's still need to have a starting point and an ending point. Where it differs though is that the AI dispatcher also recognizes the classification an AI is assigned. If you have a player train assigned as an Express passenger, and the AI as a slow freight, your Express passenger should take priority on the single track sections over the slow freight.

Hopefully I've answered some questions with my responses here.
