Thanks, when developing the first 2 segments of the 1995 SW Chief, I used the OR Testing version exclusively. I got the Monogame version working about half-way through the 3rd segment, so I...
Which Route?
TSRE already has an activity editor. Under tools, activity
the logic for the timing of the fuel stop is based on some posts I saw/read on "trainorders.com" concerning fuel stop. Typically #3  makes a fuel stop in Argentine yard. it's talks approximately...
the corrected zip name is amtrak_3_atemsb_1995a.zip. (has an "a" appended to the 1995 in the name). Just confirmed it's available in Library
yep, I apologize, I missed it. I've reuploaded the zip with the missing service and missing path files. Again, my apologies.

To all who downloaded Segment 3. I apologize. I missed 2 files that needed to be included in the zip file. I've re-uploaded a new zip amtrak_3_atemsb_1995A.zip that contains the all the files...
You are correct sir, my apologies. I will correct the zip file and re-upload. will let you know when thats done. and I checked that zip 3/4 times and still missed one....

The third segment of the westbound Southwest Chief #3 from 1995 has been uploaded to the library. After leaving Kansas City Union Station, you will have to make a fuel stop in Argentine Yard. ...
I have read Michael Vone's guide, in fact I'm in the process of reworking that guide using TSRE as the editor. I'm about 1/3 of the way through now

Just so I understand, What are the "interactives"??
I'm using TSRE5. (I don't have a working copy of MSTS AE or RE...have the software, it just doesn't work). I'm looking at a project to take an existing route, and then modifying it for my own...
It depends upon what you want to change in the activity? what do you want to change?
All of the consist were download from Trainsim. The only modification was done to the 60b. I removed the eng section , change the type to "Carriage" and added Head-end power from old NALW F40ph.
The articles that I based this on, basically created a Transcontinental version of the Chief. In the article Amtrak's Capital Limited became part of the Chief, so the Chief started in Wash. DC. A...
In April of 2020, Amtrak realize the pandemic was going to really hurt the company, so they started to explore other avenues. One was "Out-sourcing". Amtrak entered into negotiations with BNSF to...
I've uploaded Patch #1 to the file library. This patches addresses a couple of issues with Segment 1 Activity (Amtrak_3_atsfch_1995.zip) and Segment 2 Activity (Amtrak_3_atsfms_1995.zip). It...
I use one monitor for running Open rails, move the Dispatcher window to another monitor. and I can use the third monitor to open track viewer to look at Track layouts....
I figured out the speed issue with the activities. I'm in the process of "patching" both Seg 1 and Seg 2. I found a couple of issues in Seg 1, and with updated speeds in Seg 2. None of the traffic...
As I have not spent a lotta time with the track laying/route building portion of TSRE, (I've been building Activities using TSRE5), do you mean that the platform is a "terrain" form or something...
check the Name field in the Eng file....
no, probably more realistic....however, I believe and I haven't researched this yet, is that the speed limits imposed by the route, may not be realistic for the timeframe. When I was working on Seg...
Not sure what you mean about the timing in the activity.....One of the issues I had with this activity is that it crosses Midnight. Open rails has, in my opinion, an issue with activities that cross...
You had me there for a minute. I couldn't remember using consists GP38-2, 17 cars or DLesson1. So I went to look. I know GD38-2, with 17 cars, was not used mainly because it's a BNSF loco. I...
