1) the physics of a lot of older MSTS trains don't work wonderfully in ORTS. Also, it looks like you're using the 3DTrains F units, and in my...

Does the old PC have the Mono runtime installed?

The BC Electric route in the f/l, iirc from an earlier version (it's apparently up to v3 - need to download that to my train sim computer), it has a...
