Lehigh Valley Route (File ID 89416) consists

[lvlender]

Hi Guys,

I downloaded the circa 2003 (Werner Mueller original) Lehigh Valley Route, File ID 89416. After installation I discovered the route came with four activities…

1. Dummy. Act
2. LNE Dexter Hill local-1.act
3. LNE Dexter Hill local-2.act
4. LVR NB passenger run.act

Each activity has its own consists files needed to run each activity. Unfortunately, the consists were not included in the Trainsim.com download zip file.

The consists files are…

For Activity : LNE Dexter Hill Local-Part 1 (lne dexter hill local-1)

• LNE Dexter Hill Local-Player1.con
• LNE Dexter Hill Traffic 01.con
• LNE Dexter Hill Traffic 02.con
• LNE Dexter Hill Traffic 03.con
• LNE Dexter Hill Traffic 04.con
• LNE Dexter Hill Traffic 05.con

For Activity : LNE Dexter Hill Local-Part 2 (lne dexter hill local-2)

• LNE Dexter Hill Local-Player 2.con
• LNE Dexter Hill Traffic 2-1.con
• LNE Dexter Hill Traffic 2-2.con

For Activity : LVR NB Passenger Run (lvr nb passenger run)

• LV John Wilkes.con
• LVR NB Passenger Trfc 01.con
• LVR NB Passenger Trfc 02a.con
• LVR NB Passenger Trfc 03a.con
• LVR NB Passenger Trfc 04.con
• LVR NB Passenger Trfc 05.con
• LVR NB Passenger Trfc 07.con
• LVR NB Long Pass Run Trfc 06.con

Could someone please email me these consists files?
Thanks so much!

When I uploaded the old Route, I did not include the consists as I had modified them from the originals. Perhaps someone else as them in the as came with the Route form. Mine have a lot of personally made equipment and possible cars no longer available anymore. Been years since I ran that route.
I know the LV John Wikes is in the library. https://www.trainsim.com/forums/file...leid?fid=11113 is engine and tender only. best to make you own consists

Perhaps oper190 has them -- he uploaded his copy of the route. The original files were deleted probably 10-15 years ago when the 2010 update came out.

The original Lehigh Valley Railroads by Werner Mueller is in the-Train.de library, perhaps the consists may be in that file.

Here's the passenger cars and consist file for John Wikes : https://www.trainsim.com/forums/file...leid?fid=57605

I tried to go to the site you recommended. Is it https://www.train.de/ ? That site seem to be a German consulting company.

Nope.

I cobbled up a consist with the passenger cars you suggested and matching Pacific engine. Thanks, I called it "LV John Wilkes.con". Of course the activity is also looking to load the other seven missing consists before it will open the scenario (activity).

I sure hope someone has the original consists. I am not saavy in interpreting what rolling stock, engines etc., the activity needs in a given consist.

You're chasing 20 year hold ghosts. Just make something up that sounds good.

The Train.de moved to a new web address : https://the-train.de

If you go there will have to turn on translate and look under MSTS / Stretch - were Routes are
I agree with Eric - just build consists that looks good to you. I am sure most of the ones I put together are far different than the originals.

As you suggested, I downloaded the Lehigh Valley Route from the German website. It did not have any of the missing consists. There were however, two LV activities with consists for download that i had not seen before. So, it wasn't a total loss.

I still believe somebody must still have the original activities and consists for Werner's Lehigh Valley Route.

Hi lvlender,
The activity LVR NB Passenger Run is available from this site as file ID 60033 (lvrpas2x.zip). It's a .apk file and contains all the consist files you listed. It's for v2 of the route.
That file is also available from thetrain.de.

As for the others, have a look at file ID 62436 - all your 'missing' consists are in there!!

Cheers,
Ged

Hi Slipperman,

thanks for locating the missing consists! I downloaded the two files and they are in fact, there. Eric needs to make a bundle pack of files ID 60033, ID 62436 and ID 89416.
