I ran the Grain Train Through the night activity on MP3. The description of the activity on the start menu, the instructions(F11 key) and the mile post start and end locations do not seem to add up. It states to stop the end of the train at 1172.1 at Red Eagle. MP 1172 is at Essex Pit. The train actually starts west of Essex at MP 1178 in a siding with a red signal due to an AI train that passes on the main immediately after the activity starts. Am I missing something? I did a search on Grain Train and did not find anything.Carlyle Thompson

RE: MP3 Grain Train Thru Night

Ken,Thanks,That helps my sanity. Sometimes trying to keep east and west on this route is difficult during daylight. It is worse at night. I have traced the route from Whitefish to Shelby on Mapquest.com and for the most, even mapquest has the track as correct. The balloon track near Summit is even on the map!Carlyle
