Nice, although your PC is failing to draw the scene correctly - missing 3D rail shapes in middle and top pictures. What frame rates were you getting there?

Framerate for that location was 27 - 32
I don't think it's the PC, rather the route. Since I originally installed it I've added two beta u/grades which have put some small sections of ballasted track in, mainly at turnouts. I've still got the original route on another computer so will show a couple of screenies from that.

Methinks might remove the route and reinstall the original one without the u/grade and will probably have to do the acts. again as there are changes in the track layouts between the the two.
The shots at the top of the page took an hour to set up, eighteen driveable locos! (':(')

I'm throwing in the towel on this one!
Coppied the original from the other machine, got the old track layout along with all the different textures, ie: bits of ballast, 3D rail in parts and not in others. Is it something to do with global settings?

Off down to the potting shed again!

Sorted it!
I'd turned down the sliders for Pacific Surfliner. Ballasted track gone and all rails showing 3D.
