    Birmingham Route

    Hi all,

    I am trying to find the route NS Birmingham-V3 by O'brian Jones. I have searched the file library without success. I have an old copy but it is corrupt and won't open so I need a new copy.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

      Seeing as how I can't find a V3 version of this route in the library it was either only up for a few days before being removed or was only given to a few individuals going off past posts I've seen.

      I've really liked the V2 version. Sucks you can't seem to get V3 but I'm so used to that feeling now with other things for ORTS I don't really care anymore.

        I don't recall a v3 -- what's in the library is an update to v2. But if it exists, by all means feel free to share it.

        Base V2 Route (73234 + 73237 + 73238 )
        Update: (73345)

          After doing a little research, I found out that the route was on MOPHOUSE website by Frank Burns. I also believe the MLT Downloads was a part of this website. It seems weird that there is a template on Skyline computing for this route version but route cannot be found anywhere. Thanks for the help guys.

            Since Mophouse was free membership, I'll accept files for upload here, but you'll have to find someone willing to provide it.

                I don't have the original download but the route folder should be Birmingham_V3.

                    Unfortunately WINRAR gives me cyclical redundancy error and will not open file. Since version 2 was 100 miles, I assume it would be more as I viewed the path files in TRACKVIEWER for the version 3 templates and they showed quite a few differences with extensions on some of the paths.

                      I would be glad to do that Eric, if i ever find it. I am trying to get in touch with the author of the template to see if he has a copy of the route.

                        I've had decent luck using 7zip to open up files that WinRAR barfed on.

                        If you want to upload it, I can try a few different tools.

                          WinRAR has a repair function, also works in console mode.

                            I have 7-zip console, it didn't help. The route is on my solid state Z: drive which keeps giving me a message when I shut down and try to reboot that my "Z Drive experienced an imminent failure" but every test I've run on it shows no bad sectors and is in a healthy condition.

                              No luck with any e-mail addresses. I guess it can't be found. Sorry guys, we'll have to be happy with version 2
