I was driving a class 12 (08 lookalike) with 4 mk1 coaches on the IOW route when I noticed a section of rail missing, I then immediatley applied the brakes, but I had just gone over but somehow managed not to derail.

This happens on pointwork where it hasn't been formed properly, due to many issues for example the pointwork might be too tight for the rails...

It hasn't happened before on IOW route.

I don't think the PW will give 5 MPH over that break - not even with a clamp!!
It must be a rendering issue, as noted the only time I've seen it before is laying a junction the sim didn't like and the rails failed to render - or after splitting and rewelding a crossover to clear blocked checkrails.
I know it's a cliche, but probably best to "Email Support" as it seems to be a new bug.

It's just the junction not rendering properly. The more complex and tighter it is the more likely to happen.

Hello Ben,
I've been collecting all of the files for installing the CK&PR, looks good from what I've seen, and I will be having a go at it this coming weekend. I recall holidays at Braithwaite and Keswick, and standing on Penrith station, steam days of course, and journeys over the Stainmore and Eden Valley on our way to The Lakes. And Penruddock, lovely rural station and signal box, so I'm really looking forward to seeing it all again. What is on the agenda now?
My appreciation to all involved,
Best regards, John.

Perhaps part of the experimentation to derail trains?

I wouldn't have believed that would happen, very interesting Ben.
