1. Did you create a copy of the coal district/renamed it before you edited it?

2. If yes, go into your content folder: RailWorks/Content/Routes and you need to find the folder in there that contains your route. That is what you package and upload with a basic readme.

***since route files folders are coded by a bunch of strange numbers and letters, the easiest way to find your route is to go into the game itself, click build, then click on your route (don't open it up just have it selected). On the right it'll give you the location and name of its folder from within trainsim.

Did you modify the release version of the route directly, or clone the route? There are methods to release both without distributing the original content.
