Why not boot up Google Earth and try the first bit. Zoom into the start of your area at 500m and then place a placemark, and name it "1", hit CTRL+S to save the current screen, and then hit ALT+CTRL+S to save the Placemark. That part of the task takes 10-20 seconds, so it's not too bad. The next part of the stage you'd need to purchase TransDem. In TransDem you'd then hit: SHIFT+O (Load the Google Earth image) - couple of seconds ALT+R ( Load the Google Earth placemark) - couple of seconds SHIFT+U ( Convert to UTM) - between 5 and 10 seconds to complete ALT+S (Saves 2 files that TransDem uses in the final stage when it creates your route in Trainz) - couple of seconds As you can see, converting to UTM takes the longest, and when you have a load of them to do, that's the one that becomes the bottle-neck. I did all the Google Earth stuff first and only when I had all the pictures and placemarks I needed did I start the TransDem part. You can get free Dem data from http://netgis.geo.uw.edu.pl/srtm/Europe/ If the site is down, try searching on Google for "srtm dem" and you should find a link to the official Nasa site for Dem. Have fun. Smiley.

CMP CHECKLIST-Some things to try. 1. Run ..\Auran\TRS2006\bin\TrainsDiag.exe and verify EVERYTHING passes. CMP will not run if OpenGL doesn't pass. 2.

Unfortunately both copies of the flowchart have the following misprints: * An arrow should be added from General Goods to Airport. * The arrow from 20/40ft Containers to Airport should be deleted. * The arrow from Crude Oil to Airport should be deleted.

This tunnel is based on photos of tunnels that were built in the western United States in the late 1800's to early 1900's. It is not a representation of any particular tunnel and should be generic enough to use on layouts for various parts of the world.

Midnight Crossing Railroad short fiction by Chuck Brite, ã2005 Rummm. Rummm. Rummm. Billy Thompson gunned the car's engine impatiently as he waited for his friends to come out of the convenience store. It didn't help. Then he leaned on the horn a couple of times, but that didn't help either. Finally, after what seemed an eternity, they came outside, their arms full of snacks.
