Here Come the Trainzes!

Here Come the Trainzes at Central Europe Mini!

Set in the early-1970s on what may well be the greatest Trainz Route ever, Central Europe Mini, this Super Session runs 12 passenger trains ranging from express to local and anything inbetween, as well as 4 different freight trains serving 14 different industries, transporting 7 different commodities. Additionally, 6 local shunting locomotives spring into action when needed. All run simultaneously, continuously, fully automated to the smallest possible detail.

Trains run from 06.00 till about 18.00. Feel free to quit before that, or to keep it running – traffic will resume at 06.00. (Should you want to change the session's clock, or its clock's speed, do so only after all trains have stopped for the night (should have happened before dark, so by about 18.30 or so), and before 05.59. At other moments, this is likely to screw things up, with even a small chance at Trainz actually crashing.)

Requirements

• TRS19 SP3 through TRS19 SP5, or TRS22 SP2. We advice you use TRS22 SP2, as that offers the best FPS/smoothest animation.

  Note that starting with TRS22 SP3, the vendor crippled this route's signals, breaking any and every session, including this Super Session.

• The Route "Central Europe Mini", <kuid2:622685:103441:5>, available from the DLS. Make sure to get exactly that version. This session does not work with the newer versions of this route! (Content Manager may only show you newer versions. If so, to get the correct version, select the oldest one it does list, then tell it to "List Asset Versions" of that one. It should then open a new window that will show <kuid2:622685:103441:5>.)
• This version of Central Europe Mini in part relies on assets from Content Store routes, which you received for free when you bought TRS19. Thus, you will need to install "Sebino Lake", "ECML Edinbourgh - Dundee", "Canadian Rocky Mountains - Golden BC", "Niddertalbahn TRS19", "Cornish Mainlines and Branches TRS19" and "Kickstarter County 2" from the Content Store.
• All other dependencies, both those of the route "Central Europe Mini", and those of this session, are available on the DLS
• Disk space required for TRS19 is about 48GB, made up of:
  • ~39GB for the Content Store routes Central Europe Mini needs
  • ~50MB for the route
  • ~8GB for the route's DLS-dependencies
  • ~10MB for the session file
  • ~1GB for the session's DLS dependencies
• Disk space required for TRS22 is about 32GB
