Hi Cody

Nope! Stopped at the red, was then granted permission to pass, reversed into the platform ok - set off on time.

Didn't have a derailment or any other issue!

I know this doesn't help much, but hey, I had a look mate. :drinking:

Don't worry Eric. I'll delete the TFC pattern and see what happens. :P

Boy do I have a knack for problem-finding/problem making.....

Well, I know what it was: two AI trains clipped each other coming into Gloucester. I set one a minute back so they weren't passing at the same location, and the act works now!

Hi Cody, as I have never done this route yet, I refrained from commenting but the Train Derailed
or Collided error message has cropped up many times in the past while doing other routes.
I have found that this is usually caused by any one of the following reasons :-
1) An AI Train being created on top of another earlier through running AI train going faster on my
computer
2) An AI Train being created on top of one that is held up at it's starting position due to traffic.
3) One AI train colliding with another due to being created past a signal and therefore going on
and hitting the back of an existing crossing through AI Train.
As you found out by delaying the start time of the earlier AI train by one minute can avoid these
collisions but sometimes I have deleted some of the AI traffic that you never you would never see.

I zoomed way out and saw a coach rolling through some trees! Sort of clues anyone in, doesn't it? :lol:
