    Is there a way to add helpers to an established route?

    There are helper activities available with the Sandpatch route, so it can be done (they have done some nice "thinking outside the box" to get those activities to work however...)

    What sort of things were you thinking of, are you into creating your own activities?

    Sorry, i'm still trying to understand what you want...

    Are you trying to create a helper activity for a route you have? If so is that activity for trains that you are driving, or for AI trains.

    Or, are you trying to find a pre-made helper activity for a route you have?

    Like I said, the Sandpatch route comes with manned helper activities, and I can try & describe how they have acheived it on their route if that will help you.

    I don't know of any other helper activities out there (but I haven't looked!) so if it's the second of those two I can't help much, If that's what you're after I'd try searching through the activities at Trainsim.com or similar places.

    Hope that helps.

    i think harold's trying to ask, is how can he add helper locomotives on an already existing activity/train.

    I think the activity editor allows you to do that, i hav uninstalled MSTS couple months back (will be getting it back on soon) so i'm only 95% sure ;)
