Just wondering if this would be possible...
Create an activity that starts at Whitefish yard and goes to Shelby, lets u runaround your train and head back to Whitefish, etc. Kinda like a loop run...This would let u perform work to Shelby and work on the way back to Whitefish. I tried using the Explore route but I can't seem to be able to place consists at the different sidings with my route editor. It will let me place them in any other activity except Explore Route. Let me know what ya think....
Happy Holidays all!Happy Rails!

Yes, it is possible to do. Just have to very carefully plan your path.Kevin Arceneaux

RE: Whitefish to Shelby Turn

Hi Kevin!Wondered if it was possible. But when I go into Activity editor the only path that I could see would work was Whitefish-Shelby. Is there a way to create a new path using the loop method?

Hi,
You could place a reverse point or if you have Marias Pass 3.1 it has a loop at Whitefish and shelby.For reverse point: right click while making a path and click reverse point. then it'll reverse the path of the train and in the game it'll line signals and such while moving the other way.
