I started this template about a year ago and then stopped it when Teemu told me he was going to extend it to Niagara Falls. Teemu sent me the new Buffalo route yesterday and I will work it along side the PRR Eastern. The Buffalo route is only about 60 miles long but it has almost 1300 sidings. It is a huge industrial switching route with 8 Railroads involved.
Teemu has done a great job on this route. Pete |

Hello again,
Last week, I have received from Teemu the route updated to beta 836. This one contained some important changes to the former 831, on which the whole template package has been built. It contained many changes to the former version. It included close to 10 scrapped sidings. Some have been renamed and some new ones had appeared. The N&W trackage in Buffalo had been subject to the most of the changes done. It took a lot of delicate editing of the SWACT, SWLTDB, ACT files, making backup files after each operation, constantly toggling between them and also using AG to create sone additiional sidings. Two new regions were created following the changes while two others were renamed. Some pieces of trackage have been eliminated while new sections appeared, most in the same region. I am including some shots of a couple of SLG-generated acts between the N&W yards. You will also see, on the first set of pictures, Rick's last creation, his two PC GP20's behine the leading N&W GP9. Also I took one shot from one act done to the Buffalo Creek area (first shot) but ended after a coupler break. That was before the change to 836. I believe the Template package is now updated and will try to keep up with the newly releases from Teemu. Wll update later -------------------- Denis Gionet
