- Location: 219 miles from London. 95 miles by car from the point where it is 151 miles to London. Where am I?

My installed routes are as follows:
All 6 defaults;
NEC v4;
Swansea - Carmarthen;
Modern England;
London to Southampton (but can't get this to work so it's just idling atm);
PRACTISE (my own shunting route, I love it!);
Valley Lines;
Tiny route;
...some other routes but can't remember them all...
Which routes do I use the most? Because I'm a fan of HST and actually want to get some speed out of the train, I use NEC (both versions) to get my express service up to 125MPH. I also really like Modern England, this route is amazing! It may not be accurate, but it's good fun to drive, got loads of activities done for it!
I would never remove Modern England, the default routes (always fun to drive along occasionally when you want a change), nor NEC v4, even if I ran out of HDD space, I would keep these routes first and foremost (I only have 2.7GB left out of my 40GB, so I'm soon going to have to consider what I can remove...). I doubt I will ever get rid of some of my trains, I've got a massive stock of them building up now. Nevertheless, I would still delete the old BR diesels (with exception to the Class 50, thats a great one) if necessary. But I would never be able to delete the Intercity trains (I never got a chance to ride on one of these before the TOC's kicked in, so I keep it because it was the the one train that got me into all things trains), nor my DMU's, or for that matter the HST's they're too good!

Project H2P status: Currently awaiting software to fix PC problems. Got a start on .mkr file, hoping to continue that soon. Wprk should re-commence very soon.

At the moment I've only got:
All default routes
London to Brighton
Mid East
Maningtree to Harwich is a favourite of mine too but I've not got round to reinstalling it after my last hard drive tidy up.
London to Brighton is my favourite route at present but my PC is too . to play it properly - I'll be upgrading soon (I hope!)

At moment the Blue Mountains, & all default routes are in stored with Trainstore.
Ready to be used are :
Alpinetransit, Albula line 2, Bala Hub, Heidi Ex, Mersey, Pro.3, GR.2, Cambrian, Semmering, London-Brighton, Unterland & Warrington.
Favourite & most driven routes at the moment are GR.2 Rollbahn, & Cambrian. There is a good mix of acts. on them both.
Pro 3, & LBE. are going to get dropped soon, great looking routes with loads of atmosphere, but LBE's acts have become boring (no shunting), & Pro 3 is acting up due to it not liking X-tracks, I have had some pretty spectacular derailments, then the loco as dropped back on the tracks as if nothing happened.
I'm waiting for "Berlin to Stettin" to drop on my door mat next.

Routes I have installed are:
Default Routes
Harwich-Manningtree (Great route although I wish It was electrified)
London to Brighton (Allways good to run HST's or Virgin Voyagers or 377's and also good because Its the only good southern route avalible)
Severn Valley Railway (I got it today and It is great, even though I have to set my graphics down a notch to get good FPS.
I also have a load of routes zipped up including
Tallyn
Workington-Settle
Caldervale
and a few more I can't remember.
