That got me thinking ... Change the 'Mode' from '0' to '2' in the '.act' file and it works! I have yet to drive the full activity, though.

Details below

Tr_Activity (
Serial ( 58 )
Tr_Activity_Header (
RouteID ( Dorset )
Name ( Portsmouth-Southampton )
Description ( "Drive your class 450 'Desiro' on a local stopper from Portsmouth-Southampton. Plenty to deal with today so watch out ..." )
Briefing ( "A run on a local service to Southampton but all is not well. Be aware!!!!" )
CompleteActivity ( 1 )
Type ( 0 )
Mode ( 2 )


Before doing this, in my efforts to get it running I altered the time to complete to 45 mins in Activity Editor; previously it was set to Nil.
