Delete objects you dont want and put in your own also with renaming sidings and stations all you have to do is edit these.Just see it as a route you have built and keep building onto it. Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Nov-16-01, 12:38 PM (EST) 4. "RE: Modifying existing routes tutorial?" Actually, the Sybex book on MSTS does basically that: it shows how to modify a default MSTS route. But it omits the part about importing objects from other routes.As mentioned, you just remove existing track to put in a switch and a new line, or you add tracks to the free ends of existing lines.Michael Vone
