Sure hope someone makes a template for this route. It is a great route for switching. I have worked most of the activities and am looking forward to running my own Skyline generated work orders. Always liked to be my own boss.

Seems like the list gets longer, rather than shorter! Bert, can you advise if the track switches are manual, or are they locked? I.e. do only the paths open the switches, or can you change them at will? -------------------- Norman

I have found that it is a mixed bag. As I recall most of the main line are pre set and the others are manual. I remember one that was pre set going into CL LL Coal plant and after dropping the load, I could not get back to the main. Finally had to back up, go past the coal plant and on to the main past the coal plant.. Not sure why. Just keeping us on our toes I guess,
There is one engine that is driving me crazy. It is a small switcher called EMRR Krenshaw GE4T on # 1. It is used in the 1st 4 acts. Every time I touch the brakes (Using RailDriver) I have to hit the ; key to release the brake. Nice little engine but the brake thing is a bummer. I think this route will be fun using our own generated acts. It is like a lay ed back easy going route with quite a few businesses and industries. Great scenery. There is no wye's on the route. Lots of front connections. I find there is no problems with connecting to the front, but I have had a lot of hard disconnects, even with the rear connections. Waiting for a template.
