I thought it was about time I posted all the OR tips, fixes, and thread references I collect for my my simming library.
I don't check to make sure the links are active. When I use the list, if I run across a broken link...I research until I find a good one or the original with a new link...you gotta do the same.

A lot of information in these, something for everyone and every problem (almost)...mostly from ET, but also quite a few from TS.
NOTE - In no particular order, I haven't made the effort to organize them.

Thank you very, very much for this post!

I was just about to post a new thread regarding correct power values for locomotives since ORTS now automatically reduces power, and then I found what I was looking for in this excellent post of yours.
