  • Don't have that one yet. Just to eliminate the obvious, have you requested permission to pass the red (Tab key) from the dispatcher? I have noticed on a couple of routes I downloaded for the Florida Funnel the lights are red and I have to ask permission to proceed.

  • The funnel is available at www.train-sim.com in the file library.

    NOTE: There is a revised sig files that Kent sent me. I will post it over the weekend in my forum at www.3dtrains.com I may also dig it out and redo the activites I had done for it.

  • That is good to know. I have been trying to track down some of the "required locosets" for some of the other activities listed in the read-mes. I think I am still short a couple.
    www.train-sim.com has the routes, activities, and train sets. My only problem there is actually knowing what to look for. http://www.webdottrainsim.com/index5.htm was where I got the information about it and a bunch of things I should have had for MSTS, but didn't (like the consist checker). This site is more a pointer and explainer, while train-sim is the library. Both are really good to browse.
