When I installed the MSTS Mini Route, I followed all of the instructions. I have all of the routes installed. When I tried to run it, I pressed start and the screen didn't change, the mouse froze, and nothing happened. What did I do wrong?

Robert,
sounds like the installation is messed up. I'd delete the route folder and install it again.Werner

Robert,Sorry...This isn't really a reply to your question, I was actually just a little curious about when you got a chance to drive a BNSF loco! That must have been something! I was a member of the Orange Empire Railway Museum in Perris, CA for a little while and I got a chance to operate a Pacific Electric Railway interurban car, a Los Angeles Railway trolley car, and a steeple cab locomotive. WOW! Now, that was a rush! There's nothing quite like the snap of arcing 600 volt relays to make you jump! Now, I'm 25 so I'm not really a kid anymore of course, but I was the youngest member there that night and they were a little iffy about letting me run the steeple cab...especially since the last guy about a month earlier actually overran the trolley wire! He was on the 3rd series notch I think and neither him nor his pilot were paying attention when they were coming up to the end of the wire. (The track actually runs all the way to an old ATSF depot in downtown Perris, but the trolley wire hasn't been placed that far yet). They overshot it by like a block and they had to bring a diesel up from the museum to drag the loco back! I haven't done anything like that yet, but did big hole it once the first time they let me at the controller.

The engineers trust me, the yardmaster knows that I drive the train well.
