RE: What else do I need?

Welcome Tony !The world is your oyster, as they say ! There are hundreds of FREE Add-Ons of Routes and Rolling Stock on various Train-Sim Web sites, including our own File Library. BROWSE and see what there is ! You will have to Register for it separately but can use the same User Name and Password.Becoming a PREMIUM Member at I think under $ 30 p.annum gives you instant access, not having to try repeatedly until you get a download slot. The same applies to most of the other Train-Sim Web sites.Some of the Add-On Routes require additional Downloads such as Xtracks and Newroads, you might as well download from the File Library and install because sooner or later a route will need them ! Make sure you read all the README and other Install instructions which come with the downloads !O t t o

RE: What else do I need?

Tony:Welcome to the forum. In addition to what Otto said, while in the file library, download basics.zip . This lists the various utilities and enhancements that are available. Most of the version numbers of the utilities are outdated, but it does give the name and what it does. Also check out the How To section at the very bottom of this page.John
