Albula Line and Bernina

[R. Steele]

Are there payware versions of these two routes, found the Albula here in library -- vintage 2003, anything newer --- and any web site for payware or freeware Bernina...one more thing...Bernina express passenger set...pay or freeware?

Freeware Bernina route can be downloaded from here
https://www.rhb-trainsim.com/
The website includes also a nice amount of trainset downloads, as well as patches to both trainset and activities to optimize run under OR.
Bernina Express passenger set is also available from this website.
Note that both tracks and trainsets are reproduced at the correct 1000 mm gauge.

Thanks to both of you...in process of downloading and putting things together. Saw an excellent short film on the history of the Bernina Express and the Albula and Bernina lines and was entertained and impressed...that's what got this started. Thanks again for your help and suggestions.

Gerry,

You can also enjoy one of my Activity Generator templates done for the Bernina route, some years ago.

Both freeware routes are an amazing representation of the real thing.

I can't speak highly enough of either route.

I also can't speak highly enough of the drivers on the line, I think I am a miserable failure as a driver on either line...

I'm having trouble installing this route. My fault I'm sure lol. I change the default Prog Files x86 destination and install to my usual MSTS path 'C\Microsoft Games\Train Simulator' which works fine but then I get a message stating the batch files can't run as they're being looked for in the original default x86 destination. Can someone point me in the right direction please? Many thanks.

Hi Nick,
You must install the route/s into an installation which already contains all the MSTS default routes.

Alternatively, you could use my MSTS_RunRouteBatch, which is included in diy_mini_routes.zip from the library.

Cheers,
Ged

I just tried the Bernina route in OR

On a rainy day, needed autopilot to get myself up some of the 7% grades and can't count how many times I would surely have derailed on the way down!

You too, Joe. Cackle, Cackle. Well during strikes on the Southern in the long ago, I ran a few trains and what is
different about the Bernina line is mainly that the equipment responds much much quicker than our heavy diesels
and trains. A touch of throttle, a little too much or too little dynamic, and you would be in deep doo doo if it was
not a simulation.
