    Is this happening on every service. What exactly is going on. Any photos? We need more detail so someone can reproduce it

    I have a feeling it might be a playstation issue. I've not been able to reproduce it on pc.

    On ps5, if starting at Aachen it won't release the throttle lock. Seems to work when starting at Koln though

    Indeed, this bug seems to effect only the services that start in Aachen. Problem is that the front train of the set does not have a pantograph. Switch to exterior camera, you’ll see that on the front train the panto is missing. The back train does have a panto. Inside this is confirmed on the left hand display. It sais zug 1 has 0kv current, zug 2 has 15kv current. When doing a service starting in Koln, you’ll see that both train have a panto and 15kv current, so those services work just fine.

    TrainSim-Adam DTG JD can you have the team look into this please.

    Yes, that's true, a couple of notches of the power lever and you'll see the brake cylinder pressure bleed down. Then the trrain will start moving. I somehow missed the part about the pantograph being down and thus the power being unavailable.

    have you tried cold starting the DB BR442? That might solve the issue. Otherwise you are hauling a dead weight

    DTG JD If a video of this is helpfull: Hentis (antony.henley) encountered this bug in his stream tonight. Look up the nov 29 stream on his Youtube channel. It the first service he tries.

    There does seem to be a work around: someone in the chat suggested he start on foot and take control of the service, and that worked fine.

    Just adding to this thread, I'm on PC (Epic Games) and am seeing the same issue. Any BR442 service starting from Aachen will not move, the half of the train you are sitting in does not have a pantograph.

    Can't reproduce it on the Steam version either. From Aachen both units had the pantograph raised. I could still apply power although the pantographs were not in contact with the OHLE

    Interesting, so it seems like it's not an issue on the Steam version.

    I tried the same service you did sedevan, and while I have a pantograph on the back half of the train as you did :
    [​IMG]

    There is no pantograph at either end of the front half of the train :
    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]

    Like its incorrectly using two pantographless units on each end of that half?

    Again I'm on the PC\Epic Games version, and it seems every BR442 service originating at Aachen has this problem. I don't see this issue starting from Koln.

    July 2023 and this issue still pending to be fixed, at least in PS4. Among all bugs I would say that one should be in the top ten ... all services Aachen - Koln are blocked !

    when you set the train up you need to reset the circuit breaker .

    Yes it's still bugged. But on his charity stream weekend two weeks ago, I reminded DTG Matt about this and he had a look on the stream itself. So he definitely knows about it and I'm sure he has passed it on to the correct people within DTG

    If you start at Achen on foot, the 442 is drivable

    One year...
    An easily reproducible issue, that makes half the services for a train on a route broken, is not fixed for a freaking year... How can your defect prioritization be so missmanaged?

    a friend of mine suggested a great workaround, for now:
    1. Select route Koln Aachen
    2. When selecting trains, select "On foot", and select Aachen Hbf as starting station, and choose time
    3. When you spawn, enter into the 442, it should be working fine

    Until they truly fix this, this is a great way to play those services

    15 months after first post + bug experienced by Matt himself during his charity stream last year... He said on the stream this would be an easy fix...

    What's happening guys? When will this finally be fixed??
