Routes do not have a Global folder. That comes from the basic MSTS folder structure. All that OR needs in the Global folder is a tsection.dat file. This can be obtained from the file library. If you have not read the OR manual yet I suggest you take a look at it. You will find out what files OR uses from MSTS and how to set up an Open Rails routes folder structure.
Beer is not a matter of life or death, it is much more serious than that.
Yes, in principle, all you need in the GLOBAL folder for ORTS to run is tsection.dat. However, in practice, you need all the stuff that MSTS, XTRACKS, NEWROADS, SCALERAIL, and other generic packages that routes may need install there. Routes like Emporia Sub need access to that stuff (and the default MSTS routes, too, from which things must be copied by the install.bat file as part of route installation).
This is another example of why, while MSTS does not need to be installed for ORTS to run, it *does* need to be installed in order to use many if not most routes in the file library, and some of the trains, too where the library items just reskin and otherwise modify MSTS default equipment.
