Train Dispatcher 2 features a free file download of a route running from Mankato, MN to Wessington, SD. This happens to be a part of the CMS system known as the Mankato Sub.
It's surprisingly fun to play the game when there isn't a lot else to do. Makes you think and use a lot of strategy and planning ahead.
At 00:15, I have eastbound 386 at Revere and westbound 301 at Elkton.
At 00:58, 301 is in the siding at Tyler to meet 386. Eastbound L56 is at West Mankato heading to work in New Ulm. Westbound 385 is at West Huron.
At 01:32 hotshot intermodal/automotive train 191 is out of Wessington after getting a new crew. They are clear to Iroquois. 385 is at Iroquois and will go in the hole at De Smet for 191 to pass. 301 is nearing Tracy and 386 is about to go in the yard at Brookings.
More to come later.

Skipping through to the mid day now.
As of 13:49, all signals between West New Ulm and Tracy are down. Westbounds will be starting to stack up at New Ulm. So far the only westbound on the board is 561 at Courtland as of 14:02.
As of 14:12, 561 is stopped at New Ulm. No other trains across the board at all.
