Just to confirm Ron's post, the first shipment is in the mail, soon to be followed by the remaining orders. I hope you like it.

I'll be watching the postman as he wends his way up the driveway. :)

Does anyone know if Cambrian 2 overwrites the original route and, if so, will the original Cambrian activities still run?

Hi No, it wont overwrite the original,the acts from the original, wont work on Cam 2 as there is more Track,in fact when i was beta testing Cam 2,There is a LOAD more of track than the original

The original stopped just East of Machynlleth,Now look at the route now

The old route installed in a folder called Wales1 while the new one is called Cambrian 2, so nothing is overwritten. We've also made sure that there are no clashes with the rolling stock. In theory, therefore, you should be able to keep your old route installed. Whether you ever want to run it again after seeing the new version is another matter. :)

There's a map here: http://www.3dtrainstuff.com/products/uk ... rian2.html

Hi Martin

Just a minor query so I am prepared when I receive my DVD - hopefully on Monday :lol:

When I install the Cambrian 2 Route what build of T.Section Dat will be installed - I currently have Build 36 installed but Build 37 has just been released today.

Regards

Mike

It uses the default track only, so the Tsection.dat in the global folder is not included on the DVD.

I won't be buying Cambrian 2 as I don't like the original.
I live in near Bangor, Gwynedd so I would rather see the North Wales Coast being done.

I would at a guess say towards the end of next week, don't forget even airmail takes 7-9 days from America and that's excluding weekends and UK mail strikes.

I used to work in Air Cargo and though mail takes priority over any ohter freight, it still has to go through security at the departing airport and again at Heathrow, then to Feltham to be sorted, then forwarded to your local sorting office, then to you via your friendly postman, so work out the days by that then add a couple of extra for unforseen cercumstances and you will get a rough idea.

Hi All

Well it's 11.00pm Sunday night down under in Perth - Western Australia so in around 10 hours I will be waiting for my friendly postmistress on her motorbike to see if she has my DVD :lol:

If she has I will let you all know as I would just love to get this Route before anyone in the UK gets it :o

Now if anyone does not know how far Perth is from the USA just get your Globe out and we couldn't be further away as we are exactly on the opposite side of the World to the USA - about 30 hours flying time from Chicago via Sydney (Australia) - Los Angeles and then onto Chicago - I know only too well as I made many trips there when I was working for a living :cry:

What a record this would be Martin :wink:

Regards

Mike

Oh my God, Nooooooooooooooo. Please buy it, please, please, please. I just don't know what I'll do now. The world must surely stop turning since hearing that news. :cry:

Oh, but on the other hand, do I (and everybody else) really give a rats arse what you will or won't be purchasing just because it doesn't cover the area you like.

Actually I think the view of a rats arse will be seen a lot from the front coach of many trains being run over this superb looking new route :D

The trouble with a modern Cambrian, it's just Sprinters every few hours and maybe an odd Loco hauled special once in a blue moon, I think you'd soon get bored with that.
