Is anyone else suffering a 'derailment due to junction set against train' in this scenario, shortly after taking control of the train?
(more specifically: After following the AI driver I took control of the locomotives when he stopped at Low Fell, besides the container loader, and then started pulling up towards the red signal, in order to back into the sidings with the coal hoppers. However, while approaching the signal, the light engines derailed while passing the switch to the first siding)

Um, it ran across a trailing junction set against it and derailed? I don't have Newcastle-York open at the moment but I believe at Low Fell they are manual switches in the yard that you need to set.USRailFan wrote:Is anyone else suffering a 'derailment due to junction set against train' in this scenario, shortly after taking control of the train?

Nope, the switches in question definately are auto-controlled

Hi USRailfan,
I have just tried this scenario.
If I use take the option to follow the engines using the mouse etc to Low fell sidings, then the junction required to cross to then reverse and collect the wagons is set against me and can't be changed. I tried saving the scenario and re-opening, but still faced with a red signal and junction set to allow traffic from Low fell yard.
When I tried the scenario alternative by driving from the start, the same junction at Low Fell is now set correctly, with the signal at green, to allow me to connect up to the wagons.
My conclusion is that theres an error with the scenario and you should report it to IHH.

Hiya
Just tested this scenario, and I hit the same fault, there has been some change to the route or core in RW, Not good for developers that these things can change and then we are expected to rework something mthat has been working OK for 7 months... Perhaps a comprehensive list of applied fixes would help to give us some indication of exactly what might need retesting.
I will try to work out a fix as soon as I can.
FWIW.. you shouldn't be jumping into the 20's when they are on the freight lines outside the container terminal... they have up to present pulled into Low Fell sidings , where you are due to take over.
As it is at the moment the AI controled 20's go into crawl mode when level with the container terminal.. I can only imagine that some alteration to the signalling has taken place. leaving alive link into Low Fell yard that leaves the auto points switched against.

Did you find out anything more about this Sly?
