    ref file missing from Allegheny Rails

    I'm not sure if I've done something wrong or if this is TSRE5's doing but no ref files show up in the TSRE5 route editor with the Allegheny Rails route.

    I don't know if a REF file was included in the Allegheny route download. In any case you can use RouteRiter to make a new REF file for the route.

          Well shoot.
          Now why would someone do a think like that?

          Also while we'er on the subject of route editing and ref files.

          Lets say that i want to take a locomotive or rolling stock model and make it a static object to populate yards and roundhouses. How would i go about doing that and then adding the new objects to the route i'm editing?

            What's to stop you from making your own .ref with the shapes you want in it? To place static roling stock, just put the shapes and textures in your route's folders and put an entry in the .ref file

              Is there a way to open a .ref file with out using RouteRiter? Cause i can't find anyone other way to open one.

                  You can download the original Allegheny ref file from here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/bq92dq0v7r...gheny.ref?dl=0

                  Michael willed me all his MSTS work to potentially update and improve upon after B&O West End is done.
