@rwk360 It depends on the route and the computer it's being run on. Obviously Trainz is more stable because it's newer and constantly being updated. Any glitches Trainz has are quickly fixed. With MSTS it's very easy to corrupt routes, usually during development, and depending on the problem can be very time consuming to fix. Also I've noticed MSTS will crash with some routes if the computer is running Windows 7 64 bit. The PRR is notorious for this.
Actually it's not in this route. That's because this route is designed to look like the PRR. University City was built after PRR. I actually don't mind though because in the NEC V4 route is was completely in the wrong place and was just a couple New Carrollton platforms. This looks more realistic than that.
Very nice Ryan thanks for helping me and I don't really care about the acela cab view but I did get some decent genesis locomotives in. Vista is really annoying though.
How come when I try to install any of the msts bin patches it says that my train.exe isn't a previous version so it can't be updated. Also is there a way to update the Acela Express train set with an auto installer instead of moving files around in the msts folders. One last comment how do you get that cab view for the acela and the HHP-8 the one that looks more real than the default one. And is there a way to install any P42DC's from amtrak into msts?
Search for PRR Eastern Division. It's in 8 parts. Download all 8 parts and put them together. Alternatively you can download from Columbus Locomotive Works which will give you the whole folder in about an hour.
Honestly, when I installed the route, the activity editor worked like any other route. Supposedly you have to "set it up" but I didn't have to for some reason and it works fine.
MSTS has too many errors, it crashes (the program not the train) at will. Trainz 2010 seems more stable.

Aboslutely, but beware if you have 64 bit. Weird things happen with 64 bit.

@murjax Hey I've been looking for this route since the beginning of the MSTS release where did you get this expansion?
BTCRE8IONS 2 years ago
It's a completely different route. If you go to trainsim dotcom search for PRR under routes.

Well you have to understand it's trying to represent the route in the 1950s. It is a lot more accurate than the route we had before though.
