README FOR:  SRVBrd6U.zip

Grand Trunk Swing Span and seperate components.

WARNING!!! Although I am generally using a route standard naming for .ace .s and .sd file. I am NOT! responsable if you accidently overwrite an existing .ace, .s, or .sd file and screw up your route. If in doubt, back up your textures and shapes file before installing.

Important note;
	Requires texture files from SRVBrdg6.zip
	If you wish to use TSModeler to assemble your bridges, you will need to download SRViaTSM.zip so you can get the texture files needed for the TSModeler parts.

to install:
1: unzip to a temp folder with "use folder names" on.

2: Place the shapes in your route's shape folder.

3: Back up your route's .ref file. Copy the contents of GTBridge.ref to the .ref file of your route. Be sure to save in unicode text.

Included are;

1: the complete Grand Trunk Swing Span ready for use in your route.

2: Matching end piers for the bridge.

3: Seperate parts of the bridge and piers for custom bridges in your route

4: TSModeler parts for custom use.

	If you only need the completed bridge and approach piers, just copy GTBridge.s, GTBridge.sd, GTendPier.s, GTendPier.sd and the matching .ref info to your route.

	The easiest way to assemble bridges in the RE is to lay them out on a flat area, then select all pieces so they can be moved and positioned as a single unit.

	Note, some of the piers may end up below the ground level. You will need to raise them above the ground to see them or use wire frame mode for the terrain. All parts default to an east, west direction.

	The bridges you create from SRVbrd6U.zip can be used by MSTS route designers so long as those routes are distributed without charge.
