Trains keep Stopping

[ThomasTelford]

Hi there!

I recently made up a new consist or some stock that came with various cd's,one of the consists that i am having this problem with is made up of a BR Class 37,No' 37 100 and twenty IWA FerryWaggons and the simular CargoWaggons.After i start off the train comes to a complete halt again for no apparent reason after only a few seconds.The brakes are of the same type so i am at a loss as the know why this is happening.
Any help from any of you will be great.

Many thanks Thomas Telford!

Hi,

Check you havent got the alerter turned on.

Beacuse of the sheer weight of the train, you may need to add a bit of sand to get the consist going

Use F5 to see what is happening - you can view the state of the brakes, and get a warning if you have any wheelslip. One possibility if you are exceeding the speed limit is that you are getting a penalty brake application.

Thanks for all the help
