You could try convoi from activitysimulatorworld,it's free. It starts in French but once installed there is an option by ticking a box and that will switch it to English,only thing is it's a bit slower than con builder.
Well worth giving it a try,or I think you can change stock useing route riter but I'm not sure.

Jon,
The preset download of the Consist Manager does not have a help file or any instruction of how it can be used except to view Consists in a rather attractive way.

I know this is an old thread but I've been off MSTS for a while and recently got back in to it. I did have ConBuilder and it worked fine but now for some reason it started throwing a wobbler and not showing or saving the consists.
I used the consist maker in the editor but it is easier to look before hand with ConBuider as you all know, so I download 'convoi' as mentoined above but some of the buttons have no name on plus some of the engines all show up with the same picture, not as they should show, any ideas please?
Is there another type of builder out there?

In Convoi if you right click on the item of stock you want to look at it will show the picture of the loco or item of stock,if you want a larger picture click on the middle button.

New Route_Riter patch to v7.5.60 on my site now, this fixes some bugs and now allows you to sort locomotive list on .eng file name or internal Loco Name. Also allows you to view or hide some columns - see the new Consist-Editor.pdf file in the package.
