The Bala Sub has portions of many CN subdivisions as part of the release. The route
represents the Southern portion of the Bala Sub and connecting Subs to MacMillin Yard.
The Yard was built to move the RR operations from downtown Toronto around the metro
at the time of construction. The York Sub and Halton Sub meet at the entrance to
MacMillin Yard. From the Yard, the trains run East on the York Sub for several miles to
Doncaster Junction. The real Bala Sub begins near the downtown Union Station.
However, that portion mainly runs commuter trains from the Station for the first 16 miles
to Doncaster Junction. The route runs North on the Bala to mile 97 just beyond Sparrow
Lake siding. The Newmarket Sub passes over the York Sub just East of the Yard. The
real Newmarket Sub begins just West of Union Station and has many commuter trains
and industrial switchers running over it. A portion of the real Newmarket Sub from
Barrie to South of Washago was abandoned. Part of the Sub was kept to switch a major
industry at the end of the spur, which has been modeled. The Newmarket Sub connects
North from Washago. The Bala Sub includes accurate signaling and signage based on
modern day operations.
There has been some talk of the upcoming MSTS2 release. It is still over one year
away but promises to be worth the wait. In the meantime, MLT will continue to bring
products for MSTS1 as long as there is interest.
Thanks

NOTES:
The area including the North end of the GTA (Greater Toronto Area) has a large
number of shapes that can slow the frame rates on some computers. The MacMillin
Yard, even though it has been selectively compressed, will also slow frame rates. All of
the equipment except for the intermodal cars is new, has highly detailed shapes and
textures and features some affects for the MSTS “Bin” users. The Bin has been used
during the build and testing of the route on Windows XP and Vista systems. However,
Vista users must have a robust gaming PC to run reliably. The route will run on older XP
based PC’s with the minimum specs indicated on the products feature page. The use of
the Bin is recommended for stability and fixing of many MSTS issues. It can be
downloaded and installed from http://mstsbin.uktrainsim.com/ .
The route requires the installation of a special global tsection file included with the
installer. This file was also used with MLT’s Shuswap Sub. If you have that route
installed or Xtracks, you do not need to install the tsection file. Xtracks is not needed for
the route to run.
IMPORTANT:
To install MLT products, the user must turn off all antivirus and spybot programs. If
not, during installation, a threat alert of a generic Trojan horse can result blocking the
installation.
