Short Instructions
These instructions assume you have already installed Open Rails v1.0

These instructions are repeated with screen shots after this page.

 Unzip the contents of Demo Model 1.zip into a convenient folder


- e.g. C:\Open Rails Content\

 The content contains the folder Demo Model 1


 Start Open Rails and choose Options > Content > Add to find the folder Demo
Model 1
 Click OK to return to the main menu.

At this point you can choose Start which will load the route and allow you to drive a
train. You are running the simulation in "Explore" mode which provides just a single
train but allows you full control over where you go. Signals will be green and switches
(points) can be changed.

However we recommend that first you select the activity from the Activity: drop-down.

09:30 Edinburgh to Glasgow Queen Street

Now when you choose Start, the route loads and you are in charge of the 09:30
service. In this "Activity" mode, you must respect the signals and the speed limits,
other trains will be passing, your route is pre-determined and you will be prompted
(see below) with help for the controls as you go along.

This demonstration journey takes about 20 minutes. The OpenRails.org website links
to a video of the journey with commentary.
