Geneve Eaux Vives to Annemasse and return

Our Z5600 departs Geneve Eaux Vives on time at 0932.
Our Z5600 departs Geneve Eaux Vives on time at 0932.

This activity is still under development but there's a test version available for download.

You're providing a morning service from Geneve Eaux Vives to Annemasse and return, only a short run but an important one. Your passengers will be travelling in a double-deck Z5600 trainset (this trainset has a number two end so you can easily make the return trip).

When you come into Annemasse for the first time, let your passengers alight, then when the conductor blows his whistle, move up until you're just about at the signal (probably red) - this should get the dispatcher to set your path back to Eaux Vives. Change ends (i.e., change to passenger view and put your train into reverse), and move to the platform for passengers to board.

Remember to sound the horn at each level crossing!

This activity has been compiled into a zip file with Route Riter so you can see what you're files you need to install.

To download, see here.

Rolling stock

The player trainset for this activity is the Z5600 trainset, one of just a couple of French rolling stock with a number two end cab for reverse working. You can download the Z5600 from Projets ESK or Train-sim.com in file z5600.zip (05-Sep-02, 11.7Mb).

The following rolling stock is available from a number of sources.

The only loose consists, if any, are of the webTrainSim boxcars, readily available from webTrainSim downloads.

If you use ConBuilder to substitute your own rolling stock, be careful to keep the train lengths roughly the same as the original (i.e., don't increase a train length from, say, 50 wagons, to 100 wagons). Apart from perhaps not fitting on a siding, train speed will change with a heavier load and you could spend longer at any reds.

From Henry Verpiot's site (2), as per order on the page. Note that Henry has Trainsim as his root folder for MSTS. Therefore all his downloads require manually creating a folder for the particular piece of rolling stock and then extracting the files from the zips.

From theTrain.de. You won't see the file name until you click on Download (size) so the name used in theTrain listing is given first. The locos can be downloaded from the Downloads area under Electric_Engines/Switzerland/SBB and the carriages from the Downloads area under Passenger_cars/Switzerland/Unsort.

Note spaces in suggested folder name plus that "&" - webTrainSim changed the folder name to SBB_Re440_SOB_446 so MSTS wouldn't get upset. Re 446 Tesa needs some fixes to its ENGine file so see Small fixes 15 - Re 446 Tesa for those.
