Those rodea diesel train 6 axles worked. :D

Why don't you include them in the Soo engine package?

If you are putting it into a custom map, it will be in the maps folder. If you plan on adding it to the games original maps, look in (what ever drive you have it in):\Sid Meier's Railroads!\Assets\Localization. There will be 6 of them, one for each of the 6 languages the game was written for.

Hi all,

This is my first post and could not find a better one to test out my new Member log in.

It works so its a big thanks to, Daniel Dressler, for clearing my membership.

I did pick up most of the new layouts made available here and must say I missed a lot sitting of in a pile of mushrooms over the last couple of years. Was besides myself finding this site, and seeing all the progress in SMR. Most outstanding.

Hope to follow up on this thread when return the week of the 16th July. Off for now to be with family of a dear friend we lost to a better place, recently. Will be missed by many.

So, again thanks to all, see later,

Larry
