I received MSTS for Christmas - love it. Reading through many posts, etc. I see that there's lots of links available for downloads, etc. I thought I would start this post where people can post their favourite links...any hopefully, with lots of help we can create a virtual 'library' of MSTS links.

Here's a couple I've found so far....

Microsoft Home site for MSTS - still active...

www.microsoft.com/games/trainsimulator/

Comunity of stuff...

http://www.train-sim.com/

Maple Leaf Tracks - company producing downloads (I purchased the Niagara Corridor - CN Dundas Sub - quite good).

www.mapleleaftracks.com/

Downloads available right from CP official website (mainly created by Maple Leaf Tracks - its how I found their website).

Any other contributions would be great.

Happy New Year to all...

Thanks.

Actually, Maple Leaf Tracks has a dedicated forum and download site for MSTS at www.mltdownloads.com. You do have to register, but that doesn't take long and it is free. There are a lot of high quality add-ons there, but be warned that a bunch require a shape file from a MLT product. Still, there are a bunch that don't.

And don't overlook the Canadian Pacific Railroad official site. They have a bunch of free downloads for MSTS, including a free version of MLT Kicking Horse Pass.

www.alabamarailfan.com is also good for some stuff. Check the links at train-sim.com for other less travelled sites.

Very good stuff. This is where I have gotten all of my locomotive add-ons.

Thanks for the other resources.

The railserve stuff is really dated compared to what is out there now. Only the Bodiddly Railroad (Ohio Rails) Route is keeping this source a go to. All the other stuff is really old.
