Q:
Hello. This game is looking REALLY good now! I ran my first downloaded train this morning - a grain train from Norwalk yard to Seattle, unloaded the cars and drove off the map to "local" destination. My question is what do I do with the train now? It is still on my hard drive. Do I delete it and make a new one to upload?A:
Dave, Thanks for the compliment. Assuming you have version 1.0.47, you should not still see the train in the hard drive list. When you 'ride' a train into a map it gets removed from the list. If, for some reason it is still in the list, go ahead and delete it. When you deliver freight the easy way, you should see your engines and caboose return to the map. (Let me know if this is not the case.) You can use the returned engines for another train. Just hook them up to some other cars and give the train a new name and instructions.PS: I received 3 emails for the cars you delivered at Seattle. Thanks! BTW, you should add something in the 'signature' box on the options window, because I can see from the emails that it is blank.Jim
