Many thanks I added my routes to file /etc/sysconfig/static-routes They initially failed as the calling script /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifup-routes. was using the route command not the ip route command. So I changed the ifup-routes script to use ip route. Note I used the ip route replace command. All seems to work now.
