    Timetable 0A62 Works fine on XBOX Series S.

    You should have been stopped by ground signal PN93 until the AI locomotive had cleared the junction.

    Did signal PN93 not stop you for some reason?

    You did actually see the ground signal, right? :)

    Doesn't the session end immediately after passing a red signal?

    0A75 also works perfectly on XBOX Series S.

    There are ZERO other trains that you could possibly have had a collision with, as the line is completely clear from start to finish.


    Whatever you have been drinking over Christmas, can I have some too?

    Sounds like it's really good stuff. :D

    In other news, finally managed a run in the 87 from Preston to Carlisle tonight without falling foul of any neutral zones or overshooting platforms! Every other trip has seen the aforementioned happened at least once.
    The diagram of neutral zone locations has been very handy, but also finally starting to remember where they are.

    In that case, we just need to see if anyone can recreate the bug on PlayStation... Otherwise it's a PC specific bug.

    Guard mode is bugged. Played 1M05 and a Pacer service. There's no opening doors (okay maybe the driver does this but it tells you to unlock them). It also puts you nowhere near the train. It doesn't actually help matters with trying to find which train you are meant to be on.

    On 1M05 it told me to ensure all doors are shut. I did. Then pressed buzzer twice which it instructed me. Then told me the scenario failed as the guard left the train.

    On the Pacer service it told me to close doors but did it automatically then told me to check tickets and after to wait for next stop. The train never moved!

    Can't seem also to get the 87 handle into reverse. Only goes forward and off.

    Near the reverser, there's a button you need to press called reverse lock. The 87 won't go into reverse unless you press that button.

    Where is that. I should have studied the manual a bit more?

    Also as said elsewhere there is sometimes clashes with having the dpad buttons assigned to two different functions..

    If you look at the metal "block" that has the reverser on it, there is a button slightly below and to the left of the reverser :)

    The arrow shows the button that needs to be pressed in order to allow you to reverse. Hope it helps.

    Also, you need to Accept ALL Cookies to see Videos posted and I think images also.

    No, it was permissions. I'd put it into an album only I can view, so I just had to move it to a public one.

    I understand that it is also the way the Forum works if you don't accept all cookies you will not see videos posted and I just tested in another browser where I'm not logged in, and images were able to be viewed, but that can be because I excepted all cookies.
    Also before you changed permissions I was able to view your image with the Red arrow.

    I am on pc and did not have a problem. Just after starting, the AI locomotive passed on my left. That ground signal was showing a stop aspect as well as the HuD was showing it as red. It cleared as I was coming to a stop and finished the service.

    Just completed 1S74. The run itself went smooth.

    However, I returned to free roam to do the following light loco move with the 87 (not accessed from the menu). All I could do was move the throttle and brake. I could press the reverse lock button, but the reverser wouldn't move (even with throttle off).

    Had to abandon it as I couldn't do anything else except go forward.

    The above run (0S45), for me anyway, after the first shunt, brought everything to a stand.

    Is the vigilance system on the 87 prototypical?

    On every other British loco in TSW, the alerter is interlocked with the driving controls, so that if you move the throttle or brake lever the timer resets- it's designed to go off if 60 seconds have passed without driver input. And on every loco regardless of nationality, hitting the acknowledge button/pedal resets the timer.

    But on the Class 87, it seems to go off no matter what, even if I'm in the middle of a rundown/brake dance. Is this correct to the original, or a bug?

    Old style alerter system, it goes off every 60 sec independent of any control movement.

    I think it is, yeah. Doesn't make it any less annoying though.

    Indeed however unlike on the Class 50 IRL you can't just "rest" the timer by lifting your foot of the deadman's for a second, learnt that trick early on when pulling into a station on a rising gradient with vac brakes and 8, reset that pedal first so you don't have to worry about that distracting you ;)

    Additionally at Carlisle you seemingly upon getting out of cab can't get back in from platform. I had to use trackside to get back in.

    Don’t think that’s true for some East German SIFAs. They only react when the light comes on.
