Hi
I want to start making a Class 360 train, It will be the first ever time I've tried making one. So does anyone know any really good tutorials? I have abacus Train Sim Modeler. Also, where can I get those backdrops for Train Sim Modeler with the bluprints of the engines on?

First of all, work through the tutorials that come with TSM. They will give you the basic knowledge needed. For further tutorials, there are only two that I know of, one for a small UK steam engine, and one for a US diesel. The backdrops you refer to have to be scanned from whatever source you can find, books or magazines, and then scaled within TSM. mervyn@madasafish.com
