We have a different situation here in the UK, When a franchise takes over from another, or only a route, the employees move to the new franchise with their work and are guaranteed their working conditions for two years. But it is different here anyway, nobody wants to pay to train new drivers, so wages are high and it is very easy for drivers to move between companies if they wish, and one company will often try to entice drivers from another company. Currently my old colleagues with Scotrail are earning around £42000 a year with reasonable working conditions, Drivers for the East Coast franchise are earning in excess of £50000 a year but have very poor working conditions. around £36000 to £40000 is probably the average, recently Scotrail actually advertised 100 drivers jobs because they could not recruit them within the industry, they had 2000 applications from outside the industry.

Kein problem, but if you ever visit Scotland, don't call a Scotsman an Englishmen. Most will politely but firmly correct you, some will get very angry. The English, Welsh, Scots and Irish have strong national identities.

I live in Scotland, not England, this is a matter of some sensitivity. The route you quote from is the only version so far, nobody has tried to backdate it, and to be honest it is a little boring. There are many other projects under way, some are years old. I am only aware of one project that covers this area, and again it is a modern version, but there has been no news for some time. There are some other good historical routes in other areas which you will find references to in this thread.

Ok thanks @AMG, I don't have the add-on, I thought only the pan version was included, although 3rd rail pick ups added to that version would also be useful if they are missing. For me this and the route are sale items unlesss something special changes their worth.
-
Looking good, I wonder is it possible to add the 3rd rail pick ups as child objects, which leads to another thought, could you remove or make invisible the pantograph and fill the hole in the roof with a child object? Maybe too much work for this project as intended.

DTG are streaming the route in 22 minutes here http://www.twitch.tv/dovetailgames

I had this problem, it was due to duplicate scenarios, I had to find them and delete one set of the duplicates, before this I had at most seven qd routes showing. Now I have seven pages of routes showing. There is a tool called RWDBFDup at http://railworksamerica.com/in…rios&catid=24:accessories this will create a list of duplicate scenarios to help you if this is the cause of your problem. If the tool creates an empty list then you have a different problem.

It seems that good manners like the written word are a dying art in these times. I have already said my thanks for such a gift, and those of the past.

Merry Christmas everybody! As a treat on this special day, we are very pleased to announce further details about our forthcoming route.
Running from Norwich to Great Yarmouth & Lowestoft, this route is a high quality representation of the much loved 'Wherry Lines'. With its mechanical signalling, manual level crossings & loco-hauled trains, there is no shortage of interest on this line, past or present.
We are hoping for a release within the next couple of months so stay tuned for more information and screenshots!
