IsambardKBrunel skrev: Hi guys ,thank you both very much for the information and the help.
I have Denmark2000 installed ,but have only so far run from Flensburg to just north of Padborg.The detail is oustanding,feels like your running on a railway and not just two tracks in a green wilderness.
It is better than any freeware i have seen before,even better than some payware.
I have also run from Helinsborg to Kobenhavn on the Denmark v1.0b route and although i did not realise it was a beta,the station at Malmo and the approches to Kobenhavn look really good.Is this route still being developed as it seems very worthwhile.
I also like SVB ,which is a short run,but well detailed and pleasing to the eye.
I am on dial up ,so the next question is not being disrespectful of the creators ,but are Seeland Old Special and Lollandsbanen worth taking the time to download.At the moment i am downloading the Hungarian Z-Line which has taken 48hrs and still has 13hrs to finish.
Thank you again.
regards,
Mike.
Seeland Old Special is certainly worth downloading, especially if you want a Steam-era Danish route (on ts-ef.com there is a very large collection of steam locos, but also look on
http://www.oldtimerklubben.dk where the P906 loco (in 4 parts - about 16m
is available - once again outstanding quality for freeware).
Lollandsbanen is getting older now, but there are plenty of activities being built now so it shouldn't be ruled out.
Denamrk 1b development has been "stalled" in favour of Denmark 2000 electric - Signal Patch 8 was the last update to be made (if you downloaded the route recently, it already has SP8 built in).
Anyway, I noticed you are a Making Tracks tester - before leaving UKTS for the Danish community, I worked with a few of its members - and their work is of good quality too (although, looking at the LSE route, DK2000 is more detailed
). The nice thing for me about Danish MSTS routes and stock is that Denmark is on a much smaller scale than the UK; the railways are almost nationalised (unfortunately there is an Arriva in western Denmark) and there is still a wide variety of possibilities for activities (though not so much in present day, since the bridges have been opened and international traffic has reduced/become boring).
