Traction fans, get ready!
The route is ready for release at Elvas Tower and train-sim, and I have passed the template to Steve. Look for these in the next few days.

The template for Paul Charland's Springfield Terminal Railway is posted. The route is at Elvas Tower, and will be at train-sim soon.
Norman,
Great template and route. This railroad is almost in my back yard. I remember chasing it back in the late 60s when they were using their own GE 44 Tonner and had a B&M 44 Tonner as a back up. Even the toll of $0.010 is correct for the bridge over the river. I have found 2 areas you may want to tweek the template. Depending on how close the Bounding Box is set on the rolling stock I sometiimes hit a car in the siding when going down the main at the Power House and Seavers. I adjusted the car location on my template and everything works great. You may want to update the template.

Peter,
Yer, there are at least two places like this. The car placement is very "touchy" in this route because the track marks are so tight. In some cases if I locate the car back a ways, then MSTS won't recognize it. I will make another pass and see if I can do better.

I think that this is now fixed. A new template has been posted.
