Ah! I think I may have seen a video of the 8F on this - many thanks Railfan, I'll investgate the requirements.

Thanks Railfan, if I can't find a suitable freeware route I'll give it a go.
Mad question - I'd like to run my Turkish 8F in a similar environment. I've not found a Turkish route so would it run on Cape gauge ? How are...

I'm really sorry guys, I didn't have email notifications switched on. Yup, my mistake - I wasn't clear, I meant pre 1960 non UK European routes....
Are there any pre 1960 European routes ?
