Obtained and ENG file (bnc33andc36.zip at Train-Sim) written for OpenRails. Created an OpenRails folder in my ...\TRAINS\TRAINSET\BN5569 folder. Placed the OR bn5569.eng in the OpenRails folder. Name Line in Original bn5569.eng is "BN C33-7 5569 Green-H". Name line in the new OR bn5569.eng is "#OR BN C33-7 5569 Green-H"

Opened ORTS the menu in the ENG list displayed "BN C33-7 5569 Green-H" NOT "#OR BN C33-7 5569 Green-H". AND the Loco Description information displayed was from the original ENG file not from the New OR ENG file.

Section 8 in the ORTS Manual says that the data in the ENG file in the OpenRails folder will used in place of the data within the ENG file in the "TrainCar" folder. Apparently this does not apply for the menu data. That is a shame because this information would be useful to distinguish that the ENG has an ENG file with physics written for OR.

Also the updated Description section from the new ENG file in the OpenRails folder should be displayed instaed of the Original Description.

Route - Any Activity - Explore Engine - bn5569u.zip with bnc33andc36.zip applied as described above. Both file at TrainSim.com
