ROAD FREIGHT, SECOND SECTION

END-TO-END ROAD FREIGHT ACTIVITY WITH SETOUTS FOR MSTS MARIAS PASS (MP 3.0 version available!)

The morning road freight was too long to make it up the pass and the Roadmaster decided to have the last 40 cars set out and hauled to Shelby in a second section. You've been called to take the train over the mountains. A couple of glitches, though. Empty woodchippers are desperately needed at Essex, but the Essex Turn went out early and didn't get the four cars off the road freight that need to go to Essex today. What's more, there are five grain cars for Cutbank, but your second section can't get to Shelby soon enough for the Cutbank switcher to take them there. So your work order requires four cars be set out in Essex and five more at Cutbank. Fortunately, the yard hostlers have blocked the train so your setouts are right up front, and they fueled and serviced your Dash-9 and SD40-2 consist, so that you're ready to go as you climb aboard!

Your first step after unzipping is to unpack the .apk file by double-clicking or dragging it onto the TSUnpack icon in the Train Sim Utils folder (making sure you've corrected the install bug in the application path line--search the Train Sim forums for more info). Watch the yard speed limits, use the train brakes sparingly, and notch down when taking diverging routes, or you will have some durability issues on your evaluation. A full run should take about four hours, so you might want to divide it up over several days with activity saves.

Your train is ready...now let's move the freight!
