Hongjian posted a message regarding this route and I have translated the route files and made the speed limits visible and fixed a few minor bugs. The link for the objects, sound and train files is:http://okap.s27.xrea.com/route/index.htmlYou will need the following train files available on the same page, if you don't already have them:odakyu8000-4+6
odakyu5000-4
odakyu5000-6
odakyu2600-6
odakyu1000-6I think the two 5000 series are packed in the same file.
Of course if you have BRR, you can use anything you want.Be sure to get the object file at the page top (3.12mb) and the sound files. Hover over the links - the sound files will (suprise) contain "sound" somewhere in the name! The route files, you don't need because replacements are attached. They are are the first link under the headings 1986, 1996 and 2003. The second link is the sound files, and there is another section of base sound files, however Sound3 has no link so it might be a future addition. It might be worth mentioning that sound files are really optional - you should not get an error message if they are absent. You will just miss the chit chat (in Japanese).These are good routes, and the new 1986 Express route is a real gem, with great scenery and stations and a nice variety of differing signal aspects as you drive. Push the speed limits and you will hit some yellow/green (75mph) or yellow aspects. These routes are definitly NOT the line across a billiard table type!In total there are 5 routes (three for 1986 and one each for 1996 and 2003) and only the 1996 and 2003 route are similiar - they are distinguished by different trains. Some of the routes may have been included in one of John's translation packages in the past, but it was easier for me to just package the whole shebang and insure the latest versions were available.

OK, one more try. Actually if you download the html link and rename it with a .zip extension it should work. Don't know how I managed to mess it up but attached is another try!
