WS Castle Rock Railroad

Not sure if this is the right spot for this question..
This route seemed to appear as part of TS2016 when I purchased it some months ago. It loads up OK and the train shows up and looks like pretty much everything else, but there are no tracks showing anywhere. I ran it through RW Tools but that didn't seem to identify a problem at all. Any ideas what else I need please? Appreciate your help.

Cheers

It uses the old default track so I suggest you go into your library local files and uncheck the Castle Rock get out of Steam and then back in so it uninstalls this route then go check the box again so it re-installs it and see if that fixes it. Perhaps first you could verify your local files to make sure the assets are there. Hopefully one of these will solve your problem.
I did load that route to check and it's OK here.

I think he means this one Buzz456 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/ ... =247627693 as the original was withdrawn in 2013.

Some people for some unknown reason reckon that they are getting WS scenarios/routes when they buy TS2016/17. Another person on Steam said that they got a WS scenario for ECML London to Peterborough route and it required a certain loco which they didn't have.

Thanks Buzz and yes Trev that is the route I'm talking about. Like I said when I purchased TS2016 it seemed to just materialise as a Workshop item. So do I still look in the file libraries to resolve?

It does say the you need this http://store.steampowered.com/app/208306/ and this http://store.steampowered.com/app/208300/ to run it. Don't know whether this is the problem. As this is a WS route and as far as I know shouldn't of been with your purchase I would just delete it.

OK thanks guys. Yes I have confirmed I have both the US and European assets packs. I would like to get it to run so I'll keep tinkering.

I don't s'pose living in Australia has any bearing on this? I know some other items we can't access in this region. Just a thought.

As this is just a route you well need WS scenarios to run on it. DTG put this route into the WS and was put there by Matthew Peddlesden one of DTGs senior programers.

I just installed that route and did a QD and the tracks show up for me.
