    This doesn’t seem like a Baby Bullet express service. In fact, you get overtaken by another Baby Bullet at a Lawrence. Is this supposed to be such a slow service? It took well over an hour.

    Actually, just noticed that Baby Bullet (MP15PH) services 268 and 134 are replicated by the FP40-2CAT. So these are not Baby Bullet services.

    I wondered why these two services in the Baby Bullet Journey (Chapter 1) had Gold Medals but no check mark for having been completed in Journey mode. It seems these two services have been duplicated in error as I’ve already completed them using the FP40-2CAT from it’s chapter in Journey mode.

    You're right, that service isn't a Baby Bullet one. I was confused as well, and looked up some info on Baby Bullet service numbers. I found out they all start with a 3, all other services are non Baby Bullet.

    DTG messed up big time with the timetable for the Baby Bullet. They have a lot of non Baby Bullet services in there, and in the timetable for the F40PH and it's cab car there are Baby Bullet services that are not available in the timetable for the Baby Bullet trains themselves... It's a bit of mess really

    Yep, I’m just looking at the timetables now. You’re right, they are a huge mess. The FP40-2CAT has Baby Bullet services (starting 3) and Baby Bullet has none Baby Bullet services (starting 1 and 2). Never ever noticed this before. Very bizarre. I wonder how they messed this up so much?

    At least none of the services in journey mode appear to have been duplicated for the Cab Cars, just the 268 and 134 services for the MP15PH and FP40-2CAT. Having two duplicated services in journey mode is annoying but it could have been worse.

    As a side note, the Baby Bullet is called MP36PH, the MP15DC is the shunter.

    Both types of train run all services in real life, and there are also bombardier sets hauled by F40PH locos, so the representation in TSW isn’t entirely wrong. I’d have liked it more if they had all services available for both trains but we can’t always get what we want.
