Yes, please don't pull an RSC and make floating track and closed tunnels.

I feel your pain. I still run into this from time to time on my route.

Hmm... have you backed up the route recently? I have very little experience with route building in Railworks, but it seems like that issue could be avoided simply by making regular backups?

Cheers,

Nah, track rules is a different problem. You should not use different track rules on the same line. The primary head ache from doing this is that its unholy difficult to change speed limits between the two sections.

Ok, I'd really like to see a photoreal ES44. Then it's just waiting for the route.

I'm kinda supried by the inactivity here lately, it's the summer, I would think people would have more time to make things. I guess I'll ask "How's it going?"

BNSF, Two days ago I solved my track rule problem by using RWTools and its search/replace function. Done in ten minutes.

hmmm I also tried it this way but unfortunately it did not help. Anyway, I flew over the route and decided to use new Tracks because the old ones did not really fit the real Marias Pass and its wonderful scenery that you may discover while you drive. The new tracks will be much nicer and more realistic than befor. Again I really have to apologize that I've messed it up and can not offer the route to you all... !!**sorry**!!
But thank you for your support!!

Regards,
Kevin

Well, I wish you the best of luck on that, hope it doesn't happen again so you can actually finish. I was also wondering if you were adding any freight loaders for contains or coal, etc? And how's the es44 going?
