CGW Route

[dkingsburg]

Is the Current CGW Route cgw_2007.zip A Good Route to Download and Operate. I Know it's an Update from 2007 so will Older Activities work on it?

The cgw_2007 route is really quite nice and has dense scenery in the urban areas. It does require heavy computer resources to run well in MSTS, runs quite well in ORTS. It is one of my favorite Granger mid west routes. Not sure how the activities actually perform, sorry!

I remember that the CON-files for the Non-Default-acts are missing in the route so I had performed only two acts so far.

Try file Consists.zip, File ID 58782 here in the Trainsim Library.

Testing it now, but I believe those are the consists for the older CGW V2 which I already have, and the ones for this Route are not present, and are different activities besides.

Edit2 - Correction, Reinstalling the Route to get the proper Path and Service Folders back. There are Paths and the Services are in a sub-folder. Doing a retry.

Edit 3 - With the Paths and Services in the right Folders found all but three activies that would show up in ConBuilder. There are plenty of missing consists so that file is at least not a complete listing of consists needed for this Route I have some, but not sure where they came from. For me I'll make my own replacements.
Activities that still crash are; Chicago Dubuque Passenger / Dubuque Switching / West Freight Part 1. Perhap someone that use TSRE editors can see the problems with them. For now I have those Acts in a HOLD folder for further investigation.

Just now running an activity on this Route, after making most of the consists myself. Also be aware you'll probably have plenty of changeouts to do on the static stock as well.
