Midsouth/Midwest route?

[plainsman]

I would appreciate any recommendations for a Midsouth/Midwest route particularly Kentucky, Ohio, and Indiana area, that is install friendly, especially without the auto installers that send stuff to the wrong drive( MSTS is not in C: ), and that is Windows 8.1 and OR friendly?

Midsouth/Midwest route?

Hi Bob,

Well - you mentioned Indiana - so you must already have Rick's epic Monon ??? For Kentucky I've been running Rich Garber's Cumberland in Eastern Kentucky which has grown on me lately after sitting on my hard drive for years unused... It's heavily modded but add DB Tracks and some improved scenery - I don't know any route better for 50's/60's eastern coal ops... I've been improving all the rolling stock and I've created some pretty sophisticated activities taking advantage of all the new ORTS Advanced Shunting capabilities...

Regards,
Scorr

Try Hamilton Norfolk Route in the library. It's loosely based on Cincinnati to Parkersburg, WV B&O line. Nice basic route that would really shine with some scenery customization.

I run the Conrail Indy Route v2 quite happily in OR.

Do the original activities still work in OR? I am classing the activities, the final one is dated 08-22-2010, as original.

Charlie, most do, since the route is double tracked for the most part. I have 36 activities installed in Conrail Indy v2, some had broken paths, others needed timing adjusted for OR AI traffic. I believe I found a couple of activities for a previous version and reworked the paths to fit v2.

Thank you Gerry.
