Quick note: all users now get the main stock for The Racetrack, and those who bought the ROW version can actually choose either one. BOTH VERSIONS INSTALL TO THE SAME PLACE. Package 32623 shows BOTH packages, and was at one time one of the packages available for purchase; it is retained for those who bought the ROW version, while package 75345 is the one currently sold and does not include the ROW package. The location for both versions of the file is Assets/Barnez/BNSFChicago/BNSFChicagoAssetsSystem.ap.

For users with unbranded stock in the route, make sure to untick "Racetrack ROW Livery package" if they have it, wait for it to finish, then tick on "Racetrack USA Livery package". The BNSF stock will then be available after clearing the cache (or simply deleting Blueprints.pak from the relevant folder).

BTW, this ensured Racetrack content made by American users worked for ROW users in the past, but now means users have to fix the stock. :steamhappy:

I'm Hoping that Dovetail or another developer creates the SC-44 chargers for the simulator.

Have you checked out the new scenarios yet? If not, head on over to my steam workshop page and click on content.

@railfan It should work with the ROW version. I'm not 100% sure though.

If you don't mind me asking, does this route work with the ROW version of the Racetrack?

@paugor_1999 I'll do some research and take that route into some consideration. Sounds like a potential Amtrak Hiawatha route on the CP mainline.

Would love a route going north from Chicago to what was once Fort Sheridan Illinois. I remember as a kid my dad being station there and we get on the train as a family and go down to Chicago for things to go do during this time of year and the holidays! Thanks

Here is a list of all the workshop scenarios for the route.

If you're reading this and wondering why the rest of the career scenarios aren't out yet. It's because i'm back in school now. Not to worry however I will get more released in the coming weeks!

New Route Update along with first Career Scenario releasing today!
railcharger05  [author] 24 Jul, 2021 @ 9:50pm 
Career Scenarios coming out soon!

Oof! I don't have it.
railcharger05  [author] 13 Jul, 2021 @ 9:31am 
Yes this route does require southwestern main line route add on. for track signaling purposes.
dmgibbs1997 12 Jul, 2021 @ 1:58pm 
Does this actually require the South Western Main Line?

@Grizz7062 I'm glad you're enjoying my route!:steamthumbsup:
railcharger05  [author] 10 Jul, 2021 @ 4:46pm 
@Cyclone thank you for the offer and I will most definitely be sending out some scenarios soon.
Cyclone 9 Jul, 2021 @ 5:10am 
Feel free to shoot me some scenarios on Steam if you want to. :steamhappy:

If I have the content for them, I'd be happy to run videos of them, but note I have a bunch of other content queued before they would release.
Grizz7062 9 Jul, 2021 @ 3:19am 
Amzing.

@Cyclone I'd love it if you could get around to my new route whenever you get the chance. No pressure and I still have to wait for the route to hit thirty votes before I can publish scenarios anyways.
Cyclone 8 Jul, 2021 @ 6:22am 
Eh, guess I have to add Aurora to my collection now and get to looking at this. I tend to wait for scenarios, though, so will probably download it provided the scenarios are playable from my collection (or an odd train swap here and there).

@Tsitsho (fox) thank you so much for using my route. I am glad you enjoyed it!:steamthumbsup:
Tsitsho (fox) 6 Jul, 2021 @ 10:43am 
Thanks for all the recent work. I checked it out with a NYC F7 and some coaches from Lincoln to Springfield. I'm looking forward to the scenarios.

I thought I'd kick off the chat down here. This route is the NEW ofiicial version of the first beta version of this route originally released on March 23, 2021. This new route features no Marias Pass content even if the routes say otherwise. I made several improvements to this route that greatly improved the virtual engineer's operating experience. As always feel free to comment down below on your thoughts, questions, and concerns as I am capable of looking into some if any problems. Thank You all a million more for your continued support over the last year!:steamthumbsup:
