          Derek is right! Use his link and the Route that you are looking for will download. I dont understand why, if you type in the Long Route name or the Download file,it says no results. I tried it a few minutes ago and that is what I got also,but I also tried the file and it began to download. Since I have the route already I cancelled it. Strange Goins' on!!! Have fun Brian

            If you type arizona into the search for text box, it is the first file displayed after you hit the Start search button.

              Don't know why he couldn't find it?? BECAUSE the website has a stupid search engine. I pointed this out to Eric when it came time to overhaul the site and he wanted feedback on areas that could be improved.

                  It needs to be improved. Example. The U-50 on the site. UP U50 all file sections gets nothing. UP U-50 all file sections gets nothing. U50 and U-50 all file sections gets 1 result for a cabview. U50C all file sections gets you ALL the results. GE U50C all file sections nets 5 results. If any of these are typed in you should get ALL 9 files all file sections.

                    Give the new file search on the test site a try.... https://test.trainsim.com/forums/filelib-search

                    UP + U50 = 6 results
                    UP + U-50 = 6 results
                    U50C = 9 results
                    U-50-C = 9 results
                    U-50C = 9 results
                    GE + U50 = 7 results (the ATSF's don't have GE in the description)
                    ATSF + U50 = 2 results
                    UP + U50 = 6 results (the up in update is a positive hit on the search terms)
                    Union Pacific + U50 = 5 results


                    The current file search is very explicit -- if there's a '-' in the description but not in the search term, you'll never get a hit. E.g. SD40-2 will not find SD-40-2

                    The newer search strips out dashes, so SD-40-2 and SD40-2 will be read as SD402 in both sides of the search query.

                    That may get you a few results you didn't want: An example of that is CNW + ALCO will return some CNW Falcon service TOFC's in addition to all the Alco locomotives, because Falcon also contains the letters alco in the same order as Alco....

                    I'd rather get a few false positives than miss something because of a special character.
