<h2>Manual</h2>
<p>
Each download includes a copy of the Operating Manual.
<?php
$file_path = '../../files/OpenRails-Testing-Manual.pdf';
echo "For convenience, you can also directly <a href='$file_path'>download the manual</a>";
echo ' (' . date('d F Y', filemtime($file_path)) . ', ' . round(filesize($file_path) / 1024 / 1024) . 'MB).';
?>
</p>
<h2>Test Environment for Models</h2>
<p>
One of our aims for Open Rails is that train performance should be as realistic as possible.
To help achieve this,
Peter Newell has developed <a href="http://www.coalstonewcastle.com.au/physics/">an environment for testing</a>
the performance of locos and rolling stock. Do they perform as we expect?
</p><p>
It may be the model that is not configured correctly or, as Open Rails develops, it may be that the simulator is lacking
in realism.
</p><p>
In either case, a neutral, repeatable test environment helps to pin down the issue and get it fixed.

<h2>Tutorials</h2>
<p>
The comprehensive "Build your own route" tutorial <a href="/learn/build-route">is introduced here</a>.
</p>
<p>
We need tutorials for other aspects of Open Rails on:
</p>
<ul>
<li>Driving Trains</li>
<li>Building Activities and Timetables</li>
<li>Creating Rolling Stock and Static Objects</li>
</ul>
<p>
such as the tutorials on <a href="http://msts-roundhouse.vnxglobal.com/" target="_blank">Eric Conrad's blog</a>.
</p><p>
If you are interested in helping with tutorials, please <a href='../../contact/'>contact us</a>.
