Unfortunately, APH itself runs as a stand alone application, however, you CAN copy assets over too your TS installation. The difference with the GTEL ( which caught me off guard ) is that in the scenario editor, the A unit is the only unit listed under engines. The B unit and the Tender are both listed under fright cars..

There's also a special B unit which has 'particle effect' in its name. It apparently shoots fire out of it's fan. *!twisted!*

::LOL:: I forgot about that.. The particles on my system are constant and the fire is far from realistic. It would have been nice to experience the full effect of a turbine stall and backfire, but it wasnt real enough. Still I wont complain. The GTEL has rapidly become my favorite engine to drive and just in front of the DD-35. It's beautifully done and worth every bit of effort it took for me to get it..
APH is also awesome in that the difficulty can go from being for a complete nitwit like myself, to someone who eats drinks and dreams GTELs in their sleep.. they did a very good job on it..

I seem to recall a situation similar to this happening when the Cajon route and what not were unseated from their positions as default routes. We saw them released as their own DLCs after a short while, I imagine we'll see the same thing happen here. If DTG can get more money in their pockets with these DLCs, I'm sure we'll see them again.

Come on. I never bought Cajon Pass ever after having having TS2010 and it's still there.

That's not what was meant. He just meant that the Cajon Pass route didn't come by default in later years as a included route with the base game. However they reissued it as DLC so others could buy it still.
New build. i7-7700k, MSI Z270 Gaming M5 Mobo, Hyper 212 Evo, Corsair DDR4 3200 Mhz RAM, Klipsch Pro Mediea 2.1 Speakers, Samsung 850 Evo SSD, HAF XM Case, Asus Strix GTX 1070 and Cooler Master Storm XT Keyboard.
Slick with Pretty Rainbow Colors.

OK so what you are saying is that anything that I got as a customer in 2010 DTG is obligated to provide to someone who buys the sim in 2014? I think that is a preposterous idea. Some of you think the company is just out there to give free stuff away. That reminds me of something else that makes little sense.
With the many sales all of the time and all of the great freeware including routes and rolling stock there is no reason for anyone to have to own anything other than the core game which you can buy for almost nothing several times a year there is more than enough to keep any normal person busy for years.

All other stuff for this simulator is strictly your decision alone whether you want it so if you want it buy it otherwise don't. It's that simple.

Let me see what the deal is and get back to you, I am pretty sure I know the answer but don't want to say something without checking first.

Give me till tomorrow morning.
