Should not be too long now Paul. Having been ill since the weekend and being at a Uni all day yesterday on an open day, I have not had the time I anticipated. All that it needs is a phone call to Abacus, but that is difficualt if you have lost your voice! Will happen in the next day or so.

Sorry about the futher delay.

We are delighted to announce that this pack has been completed today, thanks to Murray.

The pre-ordered ones have now all been completed and will be despacthed shortly.

We will be negotiating over the next few days with the railway itself, but anticipate enough stock will have bee built up ready for a release on February 1st 2008. Price is £6.99+£2.

Thanks are due to the whole team, in particular Ben Vincer for helping with the Abacus fiasco and Murray for repeated installer revamps!

Well the lateness has been due to many failed promises.

If you actually followed this you would have realised that the route and stock was finished months ago, and pictures have been on or website at http://www.bucksts.org since the opening of the site, and shots were on teh old site for over 10 months.....

I don't have a copy of this route so I might be firing blanks, but.

Does the route require XTracks?
Did you or the installer run a installme.bat?
Do you have the six default routes in your routes directory?

Just for starters.

Did these file actually install?
Are they in the route directory?
Have you tried the installer to a different location (desktop) and had a look for the missing files,
I am asking these questions because I know that it is what Jon, etc.. will ask latter when they login.
If we can establish that it is not you, MSTS, or your PC that is fault we will have saved time latter.....
