I do not understand this comment. Have I missed some activities? I find none.

Hi David

You have not missed any activities but...............

There are two consists that come supplied with the route that require DR_BR_B12_61572, they are, "6152.con" & "6152+8m.con", I always load any new route into MSTS before using trainstore, as this highlights any missing stock called for by the included consist files, and where possible I download/unstore the missing stock, or when unavailable substitute the missing stock, then I store everything with trainstore once I'm happy that I have all the required/substitute stock for the route.

If you already had DR_BR_B12_61572 installed in your trainset and had it unstored then you would not notice the omission.

Hope that answers your question. :)

Hi Dave,
I wouldn't worry about it the loco is easy enough to find,and it doesn't affect the route as there are no activities calling for it.
