    So this is weird.

    Been playing Blackpool Branches extensively for months, but now I'm noticing instances of route degradation over time.

    Playing timetable 2F11 this afternoon, I noticed new instances of the inverted tracks bug have appeared on stretches between Croston and Rufford, and also on the bridge near Burscough Junction.

    As there have been no game update patches over the last couple of weeks, I'm assuming that DLC routes just degrade and fall apart naturally over time?

    Gonna check out some other routes now and see what I can find.

    Is it possible that you just didn't notice the upside-down rails until now?

    Yes, it's possible.

    Though I've played this route almost exclusively for months, completed all timetable services and scenarios, so fairly sure i would have noticed this before.

    Sent a couple of DTG support tickets and uninstalled TSW5 for a while, just in case it's burnout related. :)

    It's one of those things that can go unnoticed 100s of times. Until one day I'm actually paying attention and notice it. I was playing a route not long ago when I noticed the rails didnt even line up at a junction. Never noticed it until I was on foot.
