Has anyone else had any problems running some of the scenarios I have found that you need

DT GWR B set coach which I think is on steam

Also you need


Welsh Region P O Wagons [4163204 bytes] - welsh wagons.zip
File ID: 24646


I am not knocking the route I have enjoyed playing it


Regards


John

Hi John

You're quite right about the Welsh PO wagons, it was a mistake on my part that they got left off the required stock list

Glad you enjoyed the route

Its is a magic route and is worth the time getting it going. And will be a gem to show off that the Abingdon show if there is some space and even at the Didcot show later in the year

Hey Guys

Sorry to be thick but how do you install the route. Can't install it through package manager. Help

Hi Cookhammanor and welcome to the Forum,

Unzip the downloaded Abingdon UKTS file to somewhere convenient, and then click on the "Package Manger" tab on the opening screen of Railworks. Click on the "Install" box and navigate to where you unzipped the downloaded file, then double LMB click on the .rwp file and the package will install into your RW installation (assuming it is in the Default location on C:drive). Now check that you have all the Rolling Stock items that you require to run the included Scenarios (as not all have been mentioned and some are Payware) using RWTools. :-?

Same principle - you just need software that can extract the files from the archive. Not sure if Windows can do that, but 7Zip can, and it is free from here http://www.7-zip.org/ .

This route is exquisite! the only thing missing is an MG sitting in a car park.

Preferably a B GT, but slightly out of era!

Many thanks to the author of this route!

Great route, never got down it either on a special or on a freight but wife used to work in Oxford and we lived in Reading so used to see it dissappearing into the (blue) yonder towards Abingdon - often saw the MGs coming of the branch -- what a great route.

PS had no trouble with loading or running !!!
