    Hello there!
    Looking for help...Under Free Roam mode I am unable to delete Edinburgh Park Station. I can select, past and rotate the item on the canvas but I can't delete/remove from the canvas. Its not allowing me to select or highlight the item in order to delete. The only way for me to remove is to use Undo button, which is not helpful at all. Is there known issue?

    Thank you.

    Why do you need to delete the station?
    It is part of the Fife Circle route

    I am changing my routs and station. I can't even move nor I can delete. Does this happens on your system also or its only on mine?

    It's weird! because I can move or delete any other objects on my canvas/city.

    This sounds like the asset has been marked as 'unpickable'- meaning it can't be moved once placed (presumably to stop accidental selection and movement of asset if applying other assets around it). A few other routes use this too.

    Solution that worked for me- Credit to 'Adam Bryant 1'

    Open the asset's bin file in RW Tools and click search and replace on the top.
    In the top box type the following:

    <Pickable d:type="cDeltaString">eFalse</pickable>

    Copy and paste that into the bottom box but change "eFalse" to "eTrue" and click find then click replace. Once you have done that, close the search window and click on Files and click "Save TS2016 File". You can then close RW Tools.

    In File Explorer locate the bin file you have just edited in your railworks directory and delete the file which has ".bin.bak" added to the end of the name.

    **you may need to extract the ap folder first**
