6B62 08:43 Wembley E,F.O.C - Daventry I.R.F.T

I've played this through successfully twice now. Don't set off until your scheduled time and keep a few mph below the advised 60mph limit for your train. Back off the throttle at any single yellows then you shouldn't get caught at any reds.

I have run it once with no problems - no tabbing, just getting held at yellows and the odd red because of AI services ahead (as shown on the 2D map).

Same experience here. Ran it a second time and deliberately left a little early. Just got held up (as I would expect) more severely by 2D91 running ahead until it shifted to the other track and left the road clear.

I may seem a little drastic, but...

Dare I ask if you've tried "the old chestnut" and done a complete re-install, just a thought :-?

I was thinking more along the lines of verifying the game integrity and also including a re-install of JT's Common Files as a first step.

If it were me, I'd even consider trying a complete re-install of TS (hence "drastic").

I'd love to get to the bottom of this issue :o

So would I, but it seems I'm in a minority of one with this.

Yes, somethings not right cause where there should be track the yellow ribbon appears to be elevated and not at the level the track should be.

Sometimes in the other locations too there are yellow ribbons where there shouldn't be track also, close to the missing track which shows a yellow ribbon.

That looks like your using the "30mph speed restriction removed from the DC line" tracks.bin (try saying that in one breath :lol: )
I've just checked it but don't have any issues at Tring or MKC etc.
Try the standard v3.2 update tracks.bin (9,919kb) and see if that makes a difference ?
