I created a route that includes all railroads and most roads in/out of Nashville, TN and my plan is to eventually release the lines to Louisville, Evansville, and Chattanooga seperately, or if my time runs short, I'll release them to "incomplete". I believe I already have the terminal route in "incomplete". So when I get bored with a particular route I spend some time on another and for the last day or so, I have piddled on the Henderson route (Nashville to Evansville). First I copied all of the world files from the terminal route into the Henderson route world folder. Then it occurred to me that since the terminal has some dynamic track it, I should also copy the tsection.dat file as well. At this point, since we don't have a rebuilder for the track and road database, I just go through the route and select track and roach pieces, one by one. I found that if you did not have the tsection.dat present, selecting a piece of dynamic would cause churning of the disc and then crash! There is one caution. THIS COPYING ETC. MUST BE DONE BEFORE ANY TRACK IS LAID IN THE NEW ROUTE, ELSE THAT GET CORRUPTED. Now in the case of the Nashville to Chattanooga route, I have already done the necessary tracks in Chattanooga as a portion of the AGS route I was asked to do for a lad. He will complete that but I will also use the Chattanooga terminal area with the caveat that any dynaic pieces will have to be removed first & later redone. There are not many of those.
