TrainLib OCX and Sample VB project (V1.0.0.61 21st June 2005)
For programmers only.
No help text is provided with this download, but some information about the control and objects it contains can be seen in the object browser. The sample VB project included shows how some of the methods can be called. TrainLib.zip (78Kb)
Updated to stop memory leaks, plus a few other fixes. Is compatible with the version supplied with SV 1.6
The OCX will need to be registered first (using REGSVR32.exe)

I also recommend downloading the DirectX 8.1 SDK for VB - 92Mb! as some of the exposed objects are from the Direct3D package.
