Can anyone tell me how I can change Miles to Kilometers and vice-versa on the Track Monitor and Next Station Displays?I've noticed that on a number of routes the unit of measure is not consistent between the two displays.Any help would be appreciated.Thanks;Randy

Randy in the root folder of the route, with a unicode editor (wordpad for example, NOT notepad), open the ?????.trk file. Down towards the bottom should be a line that reads RouteStart ( -12739 14130 -184 368 )
MilepostUnitsMiles ( )
MaxLineVoltage ( 25000 )On the one you are using it probably says kilometers. Change that to miles and it should take care of it

And just as clarification for XP users (and maybe other platforms related to it) use Notepad - wordpad is not in XP (at least my version anyway)Bill

It's been awhile, but if I remember right it takes care of both.
