    DLC: zwolle-groningen/Frankfurt Fulda
    Appeared when I use the Vectron 193 from the Frankfurt Fulda route to create my own schedule.

    The only power mode that can be used is DE 15kV. I pulled down pantograph and attempt to switch to NL 1.5kV. After that, the train failed to get electricity and the game prompted me to "select the correct power mode"(the power meter showed nothing, 0V).

    However, a built-in schedule (official, from zwolle to a freight siding) using the same loco worked and was proved to use the correct power mode(NL 1.5kV and ATB system, instead of DE 15kV and PZB/LZB)

    so I think it is a bug...

    You just need to change the operating mode via the computer to Dutch 1500 volts and raise the pantongraph.

    (I can't upload videos so I converted it to multiple images. Please view the images in order. From left to right)

    Still not working. I pulled the MCB switch for 10 times and the result was the last image.

    You can only close the MCB when the train gets the power from the wire (voltage showed inside the blue circle labeled "No power").
    When the MCB can be closed the small icon should show up as the (B) above. Push the switch and the icon wil turn into (C).
    If there is no power, icon (A) (here) will show up.
