Sulitjelma Railway - 2023 Remaster

Description
This route was originally created in 2010 and hosted at UKTS (defunct late 2023). I have therefore taken the opportunity to rework the route into a version for the Steam Workshop which will ensure its preservation. **Please note this version of the route will be installed separate to the original which will not be overwritten**A number of changes have had to be made to ensure the route complies with requirements for Workshop hosting, specifically no assets outside TSC content available on Steam. This means that station signs have been removed and custom buildings replaced with items from DLC routes. The opportunity has also been taken to replace the original very old Kuju track to a more recent and better looking type. This in turn means that displayed speed limits have been changed from mph to km/h.For this route to work you will need the following content installed: Wutachtalbahn, Kuju UK and US Asset Pack, RSC AP Station Pack (included with several routes including Woodhead), RSC Woodhead Route, RSC Settle & Carlisle Route, RSDL Island Line, RSDL Foliage Pack.The real Sulitjelma Railway was a 3'6" narrow gauge line running from Finneid (near Fauske on the Nordland Line) approximately 21 miles east to the mining town of Lomi. The line closed in 1972 and was converted to a road (including the several long tunnels). Inspiration to build this route came from reading about it in "Railway Holiday in Northern Norway and Sweden" by H.A. Vallance, which is pretty much the only published information about the line. My version is very much freelance and a product of my imagination. With little narrow gauge support for TSC, the line has been built to standard gauge. The Nordland "main line" at Finneid has been omitted due to various constraints.The process of replacing track has lost the reverb effect passing through tunnels which proved impractical to put back in.I hope you enjoy this little route.

Happy to see UKTS projects preserved. I have your download kicking around somewhere of the original route and it's probably still archived elsewhere by someone else, so your original work will not be lost. If possible, restoring custom content and providing an asset pack would allow folks to enhance this route further - provided they subscribe, manually install (or load in the game), and then unsubscribe before putting the enhancement in. Up to you if you want to do that, but I have seen it happen with other routes (old Suburban Glasgow freeware, PDL Updated).

I wonder if any UKTS scenarios - if any - would work on this version?

There should be two quick drive scenarios, one from either end of the line. I did create two standard scenarios but not sure if these uploaded with the route so I will try putting them on the Workshop seperately.
