Nov-11-01, 09:01 PM (EST) "Is Categorizing Track Sections Possible?" I'd like to know if anyone out there can manage to categorize the track sections available in the game. Eg: Put all single line sections into a category of their own, perhaps even a sub-folder of Track Sections. This would make it much easier to find the required pieces.Otherwise possibly more categories like: Single Track Sections, Double Track Sections, 3 x Track sections, points etc..

Nov-11-01, 10:47 PM (EST) 2. "RE: Is Categorizing Track Sections Possible?" They are categorized. The list is in order of number of tracks first, then length second (for the most part). I don't see how that isn't enough categorization... It's not like there's hundreds of pieces. And the one's you're using repeatedly end up in the selection box too. Remember that unless it's a yard or a mountain that train tracks are generally straight, boring, and repetitive.-Andy
