Quite the contrary, we've all asked these questions at one time or 'nuther! I think people do expect newer members to try to understand the folder structure that OR uses...MSTS legacy.

The front panel of OR shows the consist used in the activity you were having trouble with. Going to the TRAINS/Consist subfolder you would have found the "T32" consist file....opening it in a text editor would have revealed the engine files in use....name of engine file and trainset folder.

That's why it is important to provide complete information when encountering problems --- which you did. This is a classic route --- the people involved in creating the route are a "whos-who" of the community....starting with Wayne Campbell.

Yes, that would be the obvious way to find the right folder(and the way i have done it before)and i understand the folder structure very well. Also it might have been(no doubt it was)my wording wich came out a little skewed, and led people to think i had installed it in some obscure location. I did not mean i could not find the folders, i meant i could not figure out what folder the loco in that activity was in, this is the price one pays for not beeing a native english speaker. Had it not been for TSRE Consist editors refusal to open the rolling stock of this route i would have figured it out on my own(i think).

but then and there in the late hours of the night my head just could not figure out wich folder it would be, don't ask why. I think i might not have considered Lpsno1 to be an actual name of a locomotive but again the answer was staring me in the face all along. I am very happy that i did find it though(thank's again!)because this is one of the prettiest routes i have seen and i love it.

NOOOOO -- don't agree with that.

Myself & others ---pay the price for being a mono-linguist....English only ( and American English at that ) ...folks today should have more than one language at their command.

I lived in a small German town with German neighbors for a while and thought it would be a good idea to learn German.
But Nooo. They all wanted to speak English.
There are no stupid questions. We all learn something.
