I'd like to start an activity with one engine consist,but finish it with another-are the saved activities such that I can edit them to change engines,and proceed with the activity?

Short answer - No, you cannot make changes to the activity file during the activity, AFAIK. However, there is a way to do what you want in OR...you could swap out the engines using the Train List window in OR ( Alt+F9).

Thanks,R-unfortunately,I'm trying to do this on an EXPLORE type of activity with no A.I.-so nothing shows up on ALT+F9 except PLAYERComment

As you'd have to reload the saved activity anyway why not just create a new path/start point where you want to carry on from? Select new explore staring at that point with the consist you want to proceed with? Don't see how that would be any different? ...or am I missing something?Geoff

Well,what I wanted to do was gather all the cars of a certain type (say,tankers) with switchers, and set them out in the various yards-then go back with more powerful road engines and pick them up-but I think I can do this by hooking up to some loose power that's sitting around the route (PO+N 11) and then alt/E (IIRC) into them,and then set the switchers aside?Comment
