A Successor to the Portland Terminal Route

Post by chrisonline »

For anyone interested, Rick Foury (G-TraX) has just released a successor to the withdrawn Portland Terminal Route, now called Maine Maritime Switching Route. Basically the same route with a few tweaks and improvements, minus the DTG SD40 (using a GP40 instead for supplied scenarios), plus a new loco, an ALCo HH600 in Portland Terminal livery

I know some have been lamenting the withdrawal and unavailability of the Portland Terminal Route, which disappeared a couple of years ago, especially as some freeware routes require it for assets, so this may well keep a few here happy!

Available for download at RWA, free, http://railworksamerica.com/index.php/d ... collection

And a discussion thread (including a link for a quick track fix) at http://railworksamerica.com/forum/viewt ... 30&t=20933

I juust wanted to correct my post, which I can't edit, the developer is Rick Grout (G-TraX), not Rick Foury. Slip of the tongue.

Apparently no one is particularly interested :) But just to say, scenarios from Portland Terminal translate over to Maine Maritime with minimal difficulty, including the BLXT 10-scenario pack in the UKTS library, https://www.uktrainsim.com/filelib-info ... leid=37377. Just needs the RequiredSet tag changing to the new route name

Thanks for the info. It's a while since I visited Portland but I am an admirer of Rick's work. Will download now!

Cheers
