Running Dorset Coast 5 and 6

Post by conquestcentury »

Please excuse me if I sound a bit dim, but i'd like to run Dorset Coast 5 separately from Dorest Coast 6, ie have two routes.

Do I just rename the route file and then update this to V6, or is there something else I need to do?

Any help appreciated.

First question is why?

I would advise on either using route riter to clone v5 and install the updates into the original or use route riter to set it up as a mini route and duplicate the folders and then install the updates to one of those.

TYhanks for that info Mr. S. The reason is I was given to understand that some signals etc had been altered in V6 which made quite a lot of V5 activities incompatible.

Would be pleased if you can tell me i'm wrong! :D

Yep - the signalling was altered for V6.

There are plans a foot for a DVD release of V6 with pretty much all activities included.
