Marc,
When going east I cannot get over the west switch at Trow without getting a broken coupler. So, I started at the harbor going west. Stopped west of the switch and backed up, first notch @ 2 mph. The cars jumped like they were shot out of a slingshot, broken coupler or derailment.

I've tried this with the F-9's and Dash 9's. Same thing on both my computers.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Bob

This may be a problem with the track...I'll check with Mark Branscum to see if there's a fix.

Cheers!

Hi Marc,
you have often promised to look for solutions. Where is the Patch for the LTV Mining route?

I can leave to Abacus if you prefer? After all, the support Mark and I give for the LTV is of our own accord - it is neither authorized or supported by Abacus.

FWIW, we're working on an LTV update now. We'll announce when ready.

Cheers!

Thanks for the info and for your help.

(The smile was only a test, not an oppinion. I'm sure it was impossible to understand - my fault)

The same thing happened to me many times on at Cameron while going west on the Tehachapi route. I defragmented all my drives and when I re-visited Cameron there was no broken couplers or derailments. This is definetely a bug but I don't know exactly what it is. Try defrag.
