I am currently working on a scenario using the THOMAS-OTTO West Colton-Barstow route. My question is there a way to speed up time to see if my AI trains are operational as opposed to running the route.

On start screen (v11.0b), Settings tab, check EnableAsyncKeys.

To speed up time in game (when playing a scenario):
Ctrl+Shift+5 = 5 times faster
Ctrl+Shift+4 = 4 times faster
Ctrl+Shift+3 = 3 times faster
Ctrl+Shift+2 = 2 times faster
Ctrl+Shift+1 = (back to) normal speed

Also this is great when charging brake lines, waiting in the hole and filling / emptying hoppers.

The Async Keys are indeed a boon for driving those long-haul scenarios, but beware of one thing: velocity. Adjusting your engine's speed while running in Asynchronous mode is really tricky! At least I find it so.

This could make Donner pass a lot more interesting..

You bet ... if flying trains appeal to you!

I just ran through Donner from end-to-end at 5x, and I have to admit that it will be hard to play this route the whole way at normal speed .

Every so often I would switch back to 1x, and it seemed like it was creeping along so slowly that a pedestrian could pass the loco.

Next I need to try the NEC at 5x ,

I recorded 'The Woodhead Line' at x5

What!!! Aren't you using your own awesome HUD Mod?

Nice video... BTW.
