Main Points for T:ANE and TRS19 SP3:
Picklists cannot be renamed directly
The workaround method to rename Picklists is to:-
  1. Create a backup copy of the Picklist
  2. Delete the Picklist from Trainz
  3. Restore the Picklist from the backup and use the new name when saving it into Trainz
If you have not already created a backup copy of the Picklist, then follow the steps listed in the Trainz Wiki Page How to Backup a Picklist
Once you have created the backup copy, delete the Picklist from your Trainz Install

Steps:

From the Trainz Launcher

  • select  Manage Content 
  • in Content Manager open the Content menu
  • select Edit Picklist



This will display all your current Picklists.

  • select the Picklist to be deleted
  • right mouse click on the selected Picklist and select Delete Picklist
