Frequently Asked Questions:
"Do I need Steam n Rails as well?"
No, this mod doesn't require SNR to function, though you will still need Create 6.0+"Will there be a 0.5.1 port?"

No - narrow and broad gauge are Steam n Rails territory, and as such will not be added to BnB"How do I open the bogie menu?"
