I was running "A Stone Activity" on the ECML last night. As I approached Peterborough I put in the dynamic brakes and vertical sheets of grey appeared, almost like very high grey walls. As I moved forward the sheets seemed to stay where they were and I eventually left them behind. Next time I applied the dynamic brake, vertical grey lines appeared out of the top of the loco and flashed like some kind of straight vertical line electrical discharge.
Anybody else had this "supernatural" experience, or have I been spending too much time with MSTS????

I came across a similar experience when I created a platform with TSM. While I was in the route editor the platform disappeared after I placed it. I rotated the camera and it appeared, stretched towards the camera. If this is what you mean it is easily solved. You have to open a shape file (uncompressed) and edit a number near the beginning of the text. This usually happens when an object is too long down one side of the one of the axis and too short down the other. Anyone who have created track sections / long platforms or any other object with their axis at the end of an object will know what I mean, I think.
