I figured out a way to really explore a new downloaded route. I use the JET TRAIN. At 1400 MPH, you can really cover a lot of ground in a hurry. Joe Fortier alias SIMERJOE

RE: Checking out new routes

Watch those curves or sudden hills. I was wondering if it would be possible to put a loop in a track like a roller coaster--a vertical loop. If you could figure out how to make the loop, could you get a locomotive going fast enough to go up and over without falling off or something else bad? Now there's something to try on my test route.
