I am looking for the SOO route. I've searched the file library here and can't find the route. I remember the route was discussed on TS.COM a while back. Can anyone help me locate this route.

Pretty sure the last discussion on the Soo route was about it's getting pulled/disappearance.My Open Rails videos https://www.youtube.com/@lakecities3663/videos -
I was just looking to see if Ian Allen added seasons to the route.
I have a copy of version 1.1. It is a beautiful route. Lots of scenery and great detail. The only problem is that there are no signals.
The readme file gives permission to extend the route or add seasons. It mentions nothing about copyright. I wonder if a copy of The SOO Route could be uploaded to the file library?

Gerry Storey forwarded me a bunch of Mophouse items last November, so that they could eventually be uploaded.
Version 1.1 of the Soo route is in that, so I'll try to get it packaged and uploaded later today.If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, or items available in our library, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating....

does the stuff he mailed include the likes of the Rust Belt pack or any of those old repaints of SLI and MLT engines?Comment

There's a bunch there... over 40 items that didn't have restrictions. I haven't had time to sort thru and get things uploaded just yet.If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, or items available in our library, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating....

Sounds like there's probably a gold mine of content we'll be seeing on here very soon.Kyle

Thanks to Gerry for providing this material and to Eric for taking the time to go through it and upload it.
It looks like an interesting route and now my TS SOO GP38-2's and SD40-2's have a route of their own! 😊

Over on discord, somebody is talking about possibly redoing some of the curves.
I've already started removing the forty foot wide ballast path, replacing it with something a little more narrow and subtle, and will gladly share the new terrtex files for that after I'm done.

eric,
My one complaint about most routes is that they look like they were placed in well manicured parks. If you look at the cab view videos of the Providence and Worcester RR posted on YouTube, you will see a wide grey oil soaked right of way with nothing growing. The only thing missing here is an occasional mosquito infested puddle. Thats the type of right of way I like to see.
