I was wondering if anyone has a solution to my problem. When delivering 2 full coal cars to Watertown you first have to move an empty. No matter what I do as soon as I remove the empty I get an X for that step and it tells me to get the caboose. I think it thinks I tried to deliver the full coal cars. Has anyone had this problem. I have not had this problem with any other scenarios.

Please state which work order you are running. That would help in trouble shooting. Thank you in advance.

Sorry it's the "coal supply"scenario. In step 6 I am suppose to deliver 2 full coal cars in the Watertown yard but first have to remove an empty one. As I stated when I remove the empty one I get an x for completion and goes to the next step of getting the caboose. I have tried several different ways but get the same result. I hope this explains it sorry for the lack of info.

Sorry for the delay however I just completed this activity and it is a good one to run.
I suspect your problem may be hitting the empty car to fast thereby going in to deep to the siding. Try coupling at a speed between 0.2 mph and 0.5 mph and be ready to brake quickly. I hope this helps you with this activity.
