    ORTS full version, Trainsimulations SF Seligman Route: - No whistle posts

    I have been impresses with the software -- except that there are NO whistle posts anywhere on the route. I have repeatedly tried to contact the help desk at Trainsimulations.net to no avail. No answer at all from them. Is anyone out there who knows what is going on? Perhaps it is just me, but I would think SOMEONE at the site would at least reply.

    They generally wouldn't be too responsive over deficiencies brought to their attention regarding a 14 year old route.

    Luckily, there are precious few public road crossings on such desert routes. Private crossings would not have any whistle requirement anyway.

    Places like Flagstaff are a no whistle zone.

        They are there. I just checked all 3 Seligman routes from T-S. Both the original ATSF & BNSF versions made during the days of MSTS and the recent ORTS only BNSF version.

        Ran each route 30 miles out of Needles and then out of Winslow and there were whistle posts where there should have been.

        Easy check is west of Needles on the ATSF Seligman Sub V2.0, just east passed the interstate overpass. right near the signals, cabinet and yard limit signs. you will see the posts, on both sides on the main.

          Now, if we could just get mp and grade crossing makers to magically appear on the Cheyenne route

              I haven't heard about any updates for Sherman Hill either. Hope Marc is OK.

                  No, it is a payware route from 3DTrains. http://3dtrains.com/products/ts/routes_sherman_hill.shtml
