    Question: Which NewRoads zip files needed to install for Conrail Indy Route V2

    Hello everyone, so I just recently installed Conrail Indy Route V2 (the ci20_1-5.zips) from the library and I was able to put all the required files that were needed into the correct folders in my routes folder and etc and when I then loaded the game in Open Rails, all the visual and everything of the route was there and visible except for the roads which is the problem here. So I cam to the realization that I needed to install one of the newroads.zips files and I am having some trouble trying to figure out which is the correct file that I need to install because I see few files that are new roads:
    MSTS New Roads V4.0 by: newroads_files.zip
    LL_NewRoads_Fix. by: UKTS
    MSTS New Roads V4.0 by: newroads.zip (Window Installer one that is the MSTS Setup one)
    MSTS Newroads by: UKTS

    Can anyone here point me as to which one is the one that I need in order to run the Conrail Indy route v2 and if I also want to run the other version of the Conrail Indy route v2 which is the MSTS Conrail Indianapolis 2? Also along with any other routes that require Newroads?

    Any advice are welcome. Thanks!

          wow. Now I need to install msts ? I worked this line between Crawfordsville Indiana and Indianapolis. We had an engineer swap ends on a set of locomotives and he went inside the shack and those locomotives Rolled back downtown hitting a Conrail crew and hurting them.

            It's a great route for it's age.

            No need to install MSTS. OpenRails is free and will take advantage of your modern PC's abilities.

              Wow, that's cool that you worked on that line before, but yikes that is indeed crazy. What locomotive were you operating? CSX, NS?

                I worked for CSX out of Lafayette Indiana. We got on Conrail track in a wye in Crawfordsville Indiana. We used Csx locomotives.
