RE: Haveing Trouble with the Marias Pass Trestles.

What error is being displayed, or is it just the S/DS box?Installed them myself and had only two problems that were easily fixed.

RE: Haveing Trouble with the Marias Pass Trestles.

That sounds like you have a corrupt shape. If it always happens at the same location then that would be the most likely problem. Try the backup again, if the problem goes away then there is a problem with the download.

RE: Haveing Trouble with the Marias Pass Trestles.

I would say yes, the new trestles are definitely worth it. There are two downloads for that, the trestles themselves and the terrain/world files in another.

RE: Haveing Trouble with the Marias Pass Trestles.

Remember tho that the terrain/world files are intended for Marias Pass 3.1, NOT the default Marias Pass

RE: Haveing Trouble with the Marias Pass Trestles.

Not the trestles themselves, but the additional download that has the changed world files and tiles, with the trestles already put in, are for Marias Pass 3.1. The original pack with just the trestles themselves should be able to be used on just about any route...
