Frustrating problem with ELR D832 and D832-1 Green. Help!!!!

Post by Retro »

Hi,
I have been trying to create an activity using the above Locomotives.
I run LE to a Siding to pick up the passenger cars. Couple at 2MPH In-Train forces are normal. Start to move off at 3% throttle after releasing brakes and selecting forward. Move slowly to platform and stop to pick up passengers. By this time the In-Train forces have logged about 9 cases of passenger comfort levels exceeded and if I continue the journey this continues to increase at about 1 per minute.
I have tried the same test run with 3 other Locomotives with the same Passenger cars and do not get problems with passenger comfort levels with these. Class 47, Class 37 and a Deltic
I only have the problem with ELR D832 and D832-1 Green.
Any suggestions much appreciated
Thanks and Regards
James

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. Having played around a bit. I have discovered that the number of times over the comfort level never goes above 40. I then loaded another loco into the Service Editor and made some other alterations to the Activity and saved. Lo and Behold this other loco did exactly the same this time with 40 errors which has never happened with this particular Loco before. Thinking a bit I put D832 back in place in the service editor and saved without making any other alterations to the Activity and it worked with no problems related to comfort levels.
So it would seem that this a problem with the Activity Editor and not the Loco's or Consists.
Still puzzled. I hate not knowing why something is happening.
Thanks and Regards
James
