To Mike Simpson;
Nice looking update. However I found a couple of errors.
Katoomba-Pennith Act. & SVC. files OK, but no Pat. file.
What is Zig Zag Act.?
I opted to replace V1 with V2, so I have nothing to compare with. I ran both Bat. files.
My Computer specs are in my profile

Hi MrMike,Sorry, I omitted the Katoomba-Penrith Path file, you can get it from
http://members.optusnet.com.au/virtualtrains/katpen.zipI could not write an Activity for the Zig-Zag, but left in a Path file so that you could run the route from Clarence in Explore mode. Writing an Activity was too difficult for me. To traverse the zigzag, use a steam loco with a couple of carriages and start in Explore mode from Clarence station.Descend to Top Points, uncouple the loco, run around to rear of train, change points and reverse down the ramp to Bottom Points.
Stop there to let the tourists have a look around. Uncouple and run around again, then run back up to Top Points, then run around again and back to Clarence. Try it in the rain, the grade is around 1:30 and I have never managed it.Mike

Hi Mike,
That Pathway did the trick. Thanks.
Also the con. file Class_80_Grain was missing. I made a con. file & put in what I thought was supposed to be there. If you can send me the con. file I would apreciate it.

Thanks again. My Computer specs are in my profile
