    Hi Paul,
    As far as I am aware, there's no such MSTS route called West Highland Main Line.
    There is Highland Mainline which is available from this site's library.
    The library contains the original route from 2005 (=16 files) plus 4 upgrade files dated 2008 but I strongly suggest that you forget them and check out file ID 72316 which is the full route including the Aberdeen to Inverness extension, and is dated 2009.

    For completeness, there is also a separate route, Highland Railway by Darwin Smith which is set in the 1930s LMS days, downloadable in 5 parts.

    Cheers,
    Ged

      There was one route with that name, but it was on CD-rom only at the UKtrainsim site. Sadly the site is down for good now. I am really wondering what happened with those on CD-rom only routes. It would be great if they got not lost, and will be made available somewhere. I (for myself) would like to get a copy of the London Paddington to Penzance route. But sadly that one was on CD-rom only also. Does anyone know if and where those routes are still available???

      P.S. The route was called West Higland line on the UKtrainsim site

          I have to agree with Slipperman, there is not and never was a route known as West Highland Main Line.

          There is one called West Highland which was made by Vern Moorhouse which was on a compilation cd with some of his other routes, but was also available as a download, but that never made it to this library.

          Another one is the Highland Mainline by John Melia, 17 parts including readme plus the five files for the extension which is available here, which is a modernish diesel route. The single file - hlnd_ml.zip as Slipperman stated is the full route plus the extension, and finally there is the 1930s version made by Darwin Smith.

          Beer is not a matter of life or death, it is much more serious than that.
