Northwest Line route v6, Oncoming template Options

[dgionet]

Hello to all,

For those who were there in early 2007 was done my very first template, that was the Northwest Line version 2. Today, close to six years later is being worked version 6, the third template for this route ( v2 & 3 done). Rory Rice, its creator has done a very good job on this one as he took advantage in MSTS advancements of the last years. For example, for those who had run Ted Kocyla's Mactier route, some of the work done there can be found here as well, like the switches components, including small propane tanks for heating the switches, etc. The scenery has been enhanced throughout the entire route. Good job Rory!

Preparation of the template has started three months ago but has been halted when was released the Blue Comet (BC) route and have decided to create the BC template first. Now this being done, I have resumed its construction and have now finished the nine templates. Four (4) templates for the mainline templates (EB and WB) for each the CN and CP lines. Another four (4) has been done for the local templates (EB and WB). Fianlly the last one is a yards templates for the main cities, Delmenton and Korimer areas. The number of serviceable sidings has increased to more than 220 from the previous 130.

Benny has volunteered for testing and has started doing so. Thanks again Benny! Let me know if you wish to test the templates.

Thought to let you know that I can't start any activity with Northwest Templates because as soon as the program of Train Simulator started and the warning message popped up on the screen. Look below:

Alert

Activity complete

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Now I did not even started with any activity because the simulation is over with the word, " Activity Complete."

Guess that this need to be fixed first before upload the files again.

Thank you,

John

Have created several activities on both CN and CP with no problems. Have done 2 locals and 3 through trains. Not sure what could be causing your problem.

Thanks for your reply and that's strange for me that I can't run this template but you can. I wonder if I can remove the alert with " Activity Complete " in MSTS Editors and Tools program? Or should wait for D. Gionet to see what he have to say about his work on this templates.
