Timesaver Switching Route

Description
Timesaver is a switching route based on a track plan by John Allen. This rendition of the timesaver track plan also draws inspiration from a Microsoft Train Simulator adaptation of it. The route offers quite a switching challenge as you try to get each car where it's supposed to be.

Required DLC:
US Asset Pack
European Asset Pack


5/9/2020 - The route has received a major expansion. There is now a second industrial park, a grain elevator complex, and a quarry you can switch. There is also now a small yard you can base your switch jobs out of. The route has also gotten some scenic tweaks as well. Despite all this, the original yard's trackwork and markers haven not been changed, so old scenarios yuou may have made should work with little/no need for updating.

If you 'google' a little bit, jkelly, you can find the whole story of the Timesaver and suggestions for the way to play it. I understand that originally there was a pack of cards that gave you in some way the orders for your consist.

A neat shunting/switching route. Not sure about the UK point/switch levers but easily replaced with switchstands. The route works and that's what matters.

Good job!

@Millhiore I've got that sort of in the works as part of a much bigger update coming down the pike real soon...

Could you add another quickstart position on the opposite side of the mainline switch? That way, one could start by entering the yard, instead of already being in the middle of it.

Small route, but a lot of fun switching in tight quarters. Recommend you use an end-cab switcher or light 4-axle roadswitcher.

@Sking128 If the route includes a scenario, I believe it predates my ability to make working scenarios. In other words I don't think an included scenario works at all. I'll have to revisit that one of these days....
