| Trainz Links |
| There are hundreds of websites about Trainz, and many of these have links to yet more sites. The table below lists my top 14, most of which contain (or are specifically about) modern UK content. Note that sites marked as having Downloads are only those that include items not available on the DLS, whether they are custom content, tutorial files or whatever. |

TrainzObjectz
Terry Franks is another of the early supporters of Trainz, and he has produced masses of buildings and other objects, details of which can be found on this site. More importantly, there are some incredibly useful tutorials for getting started with custom content creation, and the excellent TrainzObjectz content management utility. |

Virtual Southern Region
Bit of a deceptive title on this website, the main content being rolling stock and track/signalling items. The former includes some very nice Freightliner wagons, while the latter features a signalling pack that makes placing accurate signals that work well in AI sessions much easier. |

Trainz Asset Repair Library
This is a very useful site, listing issues with content on the DLS and suggesting fixes. If you've got an item that won't work, look it up here. Content creators should also look up their own items to see how they perform! |

UK Branch Lines
This is a collective of some of the best content creators currently producing UK-related items. There are loads of items of rolling stock and scenery here, many from the steam era but also lots that would not be out of place on a modern layout. |
