I had thought that the last Railworks Patch cured the tender uncoupling on the G-Trax Northern steam engine when resuming a scenario.
I am patched up on both Railworks and have applied the product patches but this still occurs. If I try to reconnect the tender moves away.
Do others get this issue?

Obviously no one else having this issue.
RW cannot help me so have also posted a support request to G-Trax.

Re: Uncoupling when resuming saved scenario
Yep. I had this same issue using G-TraX stuff on one of my installed scenarios. Though I don't know if the issue was just because the scenario used a G-TraX engine & stock, or just that particular scenario was being fussy about continuing from a save. The only way I was able to "fix" it was to re-start the same scenario again from the beginning.
I seem to recall reading some messages previously that sometimes continuing from a "Save" can sometimes cause problems in some scenarios. Sometimes it might be an "Uncoupling" error as we experienced, or sometimes it might mess-up the AI train-traffic or signaling as well.
I don't always depend on a "Save" to work properly for scenarios, so sometimes it's better to start playing a scenario from the beginning to end in one sitting when you know you'll have the time to complete it and you have a fresh cup-o-tea or two handy. Biscuits can help too.

Re: Uncoupling when resuming saved scenario
You are probably right but it is annoying nonetheless.
A scenario over the Cajon Pass will take some hours to play. You would think there is some obvious cause. Oh well I know not to use G tax stuff on long scenarios and be more cautious in buying their locos. Might try to see what happens on the other steam locos as a test to see if it impacts them all.
