    That's unfortunate to hear, the only solution I can think of is to make the formation slightly shorter and that should resolve the crashing, do report back if it doesn't work ;).

    It may also be an issue if you have multiple custom liveries in the formation too.

    Yeah, really good to see isn't it?

    Oh dear... top tip, always save your scenarios after the creation process and if you make any changes, make sure it saves those changes to prevent this issue from re-occurring ;).

    Yea, i thought about changing the AI at Aachen because it was only 3 trains (including player) at Aachen, changed the platform to 8 and added 2 ICE Trains that one follows you. Also the special doesn’t call at Stolberg HBF, but i need to make sure i remember to add Köln-Ehrenfeld.
    Also I shortened the train to 10 instead of 14 (+ 463.0)

    Have a (attempted, i’m not good a poetry) poem. This gives a hint for the sequel of Footy Tap.

    “After the intense match, it’s time to head home,
    But it goes wrong when the tap changer’s stolen by some.
    So a quick solution makes some people pale,
    As the consist has to become loco back and front.

    Hi guys. Tom here, and i have some bad news regarding Footy Tap.

    I’m cancelling the scenario. Why? Well, it crashes when i try and upload it. I’ve shortened the formations and a bunch of other stuff, but it doesn’t work..
    I’m sorry for everyone that was hyped for the scenario.

    :(

    Oh well :(, it is really hard when you have to cancel a project but I reckon that your next project will be as good as Footy Tap would've been :).

    Hey all! Tom here, to announce my next scenario and the 1st installement of ‘Great Western Shifts’ called ‘High Speed Stopper

    Name: (GWS 1) High Speed Stopper
    Route: Great Western Express
    Stock: HST (2+4 set)
    Route Coverage: London Paddington to Reading
    Length: 1 hour
    Context: The 166, which you were originally allocated to for the 8:35 Great Western Railway service to Bristol Parkway, has failed with engine problems. To not cancel the train, a 2+4 HST set was put on for the service. Take the set from Paddington to Reading, where another will take over


    Here’s some preview pictures:
    e8200850-18b1-4142-b486-29421f2d3937.png

    Paddington is quite busy. A HST 2+8 set leaves for Swansea, a 166 waits to leave for Newbury, 45586 ‘Hardy’ waits to leave on a railtour bound for Cardiff via Newbury and our player service leaves for Bristol Parkway 052fcb72-58de-4723-a5bc-9883a3dbe0b4.jpeg

    We pass Acton where a RHTT Train sits in the reception line. It looks like we are chasing the HST :cool: 99e586c7-a504-46f9-bd91-05d7544daa4d.jpeg
    We leave Hayes and Harlington and pass by the aggregates facility
    05bf096b-aa2c-4de9-addb-4a007c33f61e.jpeg

    As we approach Iver, we pass by a 66 on a Loaded HKA Train.

    Formations you need:
    (GWE) 165 (TTB)
    Routes needed:
    Great Western Express
    Spirit of Steam
    RHTT

    You will be able to drive a railtour into Paddington in either GWS5 or GWS6

    So you have started making your first Scenario Pack, looking forward to seeing the rest of the series as well :).

    Got two Scenario Packs myself coming out in October from Blackpool and Glossop so nice to see you branching out into other avenues rather than just singular liveries and scenarios.

    The GWS scenarios will have less Ai, this is to hopefully stop it from crashing

    No worries, as long as the scenario is playable, it should be fine :).

    Hey all. It’s time to announce GWS2 and GWS3.
    Starting off with GWS2: Commuter Express

    Name: (GWS 2) Commuter Express
    Route: Great Western Express
    Stock: 166
    Route Coverage: Paddington - Slough
    Length: 30-40 minutes
    Context: Your driving a semifast service to Slough in a 166, but instead of the slow lines, your on the high speed lines! You will be calling at Ealing Broadway, Southall and Hayes and Harlington


    Here’s the preview pictures:
    5497c73e-ba16-422c-8fed-522a9ff2c5d1.jpeg

    Here we are, passing a London-bound 166202 as we speed down the Great Western Main Line, on the UF 6656a833-3014-46f4-9d4c-bc04fcd5a0a6.jpeg
    This is one of my favourite photos i’ve taken.
    a DB Schenker 66 passes us at Southall from the yard with a container service for Acton.

    Now here’s GWS3:
    Name: (GWS 3) Rail Head Reading
    Route: Great Western Express
    Stock: 66 (x8 Tank)
    Route Coverage: Southall Yard to Reading via London Paddington
    Length: 50-55 minutes
    Context: It’s a early October morning, and you have been called out to start on the first leg of 3S77 Southall West Yard to Southall West Yard via Paddington, Swindon and Westbury. Start the first leg by heading to Paddington, then switching to the other 66 and head to Reading, where another driver will take over.

    Preview Pictures:
    eff60c7c-1e17-419d-9b62-0f9b2aa1b44c.png
    This is a photo that belongs in the Screenshot Contest. A 66241 and 66051 leave Paddington on the way to Reading.

    57f58081-75be-4a5f-a3aa-677e54b74cba.jpeg
    At a very quiet Paddington, we switch to 66241 and head out of London.

    Keep the reverser handle and brakes released in the 66 you take from Southall to Paddington. Also (if on PC) switch cabs to the (then back) 66 to apply the Automatic Brake, if your on console without keyboard. go in the secondman seat and scroll through the cab views untill you get the cab of the 66 from your Southall to London section and apply brakes there

    Issue with that:
    You can only use Buxton Midland. That closed in 1967, and the LNWR station’s out of bounds.
    I could do it from Matlock or Chinley.

    and i couldn’t do it modern because i said
    I could do it in the 80s like 5593 is doing a railtour from the 80s as it was mainline certified

    I’ve decided to rise this thread from the dead to announce something,
    I (inspired by TrainGeek08) am making a railfan scenario.
    Here are some hints:
    -It has Turbostars stop here
    -it has 4 platforms
    - It is served by 2 operators
    - Loads of freight pass through to get to Mountsorrel

    I think so... I mean I could've guessed Derby or Nottingham based on the first three clues, but Mountsorrel gave it away to be Leicester :).

    I’m back again! Leicester (Railfan) is still in the works, Although I may restart work on FlixTRAXX, but who knows?
    Maybe a WCL Scenario could come out before any of the two

    Hey all! It’s been a while. Sorry around the lack of uploads and updates, it’s just that my motivation for creating content has basically fallen off the charts.
    Hopefully I will plan on doing a Rail200 Scenario (might use rigsby#3981 ’s 43803 for it but we will have to see) on Midland Mainline.
    Thanks for waiting and I hope to say more about in the coming weeks or months!

    -Tom (TTB)

    Hello and Welcome to my first upload in a couple of months! A (Fictional) Livery, Network SouthEast on the DB 463.0 Karlsruhr Kopf Cabcar!​

    Name: NSE 463.0
    Stock: BRO DB 463.0
    Time Taken: 45 minutes

    Screenshot Time!
    a12417a0-3f3d-426f-a288-24ec1880f773.png
    Here is the livery at Williton Engine Shed, the location for photos of loco / individual wagons liveries. Multiple Units will be screenshotted at either Williton or Bishops Lydeard. ;)

    1db8bf38-27a4-4d0e-9ad1-3d0c90b5da60.png
    Never knew the corridor looks like that :o

    dc501433-8600-4014-9beb-a3e8f95ffa7f.png
    Here it is passing over the Oldenburg Bridge. Very unusual for NSE liveried stock to go along.

    I hope you will enjoy this livery when it releases!

    I’m TTB, and I’ll see you in the next announcement

    That’s weird, I was gonna announce my next livery, but it appears that photo became pixelated
    Don’t worry I’ll fix it
