The UP Salina Sub template is coming along nicely. I have the WB template generating nice activities, including traffic, and will start the EB template next year.
Finding decent UP locos is an issue, and after much searching I have decided to use the Diesels West UP set, which includes SD50, SD40-2, SD40T-2, and C30-7 locos. As a bonus, the user also gets some patched GP40 locos as a DW "special addition". -------------------- Norman

I have been working with Basil to ensure that the update is fully compatible with the activity enhancements that I added to the route. A preliminary look at UPSS-2 appears to work perfectly with the existing template. -------------------- Norman

Doesn't this affect the AG Template, and any previous activities generated? |

I have one small change to make in the template files, that being to change the route ID to UPSS-2 in the template activity files. I might be able to get to it early next week. Until I get that done and Steve gets it posted, if anyone wants to run the UPSS-2 using the AG templates, simply go into the .act files and find the route ID line. Change it from UPSS to UPSS-2. BE SURE TO BACK UP THE FILE FIRST IN CASE YOU NEED TO REVERT. -------------------- Norman
