Empty coal train on a Friday for the NS Coal District Roue signal issu

[Claude350]

I attempt to run this activity with the Conrail SD50 set. But once the reaching the dwarf signal to leave the yard I never get a clear signal to do so. I've waited well over an hour and no other train has appeared. Has anyone else experienced this and if so was is the solution to repair the activity? Using the Tab key to get permission doesn't work either.

It's possible that you are arriving at the signal late and AI trains have passed causing your path to be off. When sitting at the signal go to the 2d map and check the route out. If you have a blueish line from your engine all the way past the signal, follow it ahead to the next block. It's possible the AI traffic is the problem and the timings.

It's not that I'm arriving late. You start with a stop signal at the end of the yard awaiting the arriving of an opposing train that never appears. After a few attempts I went to the map and found that the opposing train is stopped and not moving. The signal is set for the arrival of the opposing train. I'm not sure what to do to get it moving other than deleting it from the activity.

Did the scenario come with the Conrail SD50? I don't have that Scenario or the SD50 to test. It's possible they never set the consist to properly start. If you contact them for support there may be a fix or like you said just delete the non-moving AI train and try it that way. Make a copy of the scenario first and do the edits in the copy this way if there is an update later you will still have the original.

Yes the scenario came with the Conrail and SD50. I recall reading a post about this but I can't remember where I saw the. One poster described what the did to fix it. I. Just can't remember what it was and where I saw the post.
