Mine is still there on both of my machines, one that I verify the files regularly and one that I never do.

I did a verify cache the other day as I had last some scenery on L2B and I still have it too. Its where I've been testing my Meridian. The only trouble I have is a lack of anywhere prototypical to run it from other than St Pancras and York with a summer Scarborough.

Sooo...
Can anyone who have had TS since its original Railworks incarnation, and followed on With all updates up to and including TS2014, and then done a post-TS2014 full reinstall say whether or not their TestTrak has disappeared? I'm about to start preparing my traditional New Year's system reformat/reinstall, but a bit wary of doing it if it means losing TestTrak....

As a result of the foul up by Steam and RSC during the Autumn sale, my TS2014 set up was uninstalled then re-installed by Steam and the re-install did not include Testrak, I had to get it from a backup I had.

So I strongly recommend you back it up before you do your reformat/reinstall/

The short answer to your question is that I do still have the Test Track.

Dtg have published an article in Engine Driver that they comment the Munich-Augsburgh and Testtrak upgrade.
From now both routes and its assets will be packaged in *.ap files.

PS: I still have not received the update of TestTrak.

I noticed they asked on Twitter the other day who was enjoying it, but I checked and also don't have it. I just assumed it was something about my set up and I'd check later but maybe it's just not gone out?

Good afternoon
I'm also minus test trak on my installation
Hopefully it will be reinstated as it was useful for familiarizing a new loco especially one with advanced features
Kind regards Stephen

I did a complete reinstall of my backup copy of Railworks on Monday and the Test Track hadn't turned up.
For disclosure, I am affiliated with a third party developer however, I do not know anything about any future releases unless I'm working on them and even then, I'd be breaking years worth of built up trust to say anything about it ;-)

Yes, but as you can see by the date that was over a week ago and when reading the article printed on Train Driver it is written as though the update has already been applied!!! not on my version anyway, and I always close Steam down completely when not using TS2013 so when I open Steam from scratch the updated should have been applied automatically if it has been done ?
