    While you're at it, do away with "file size is too large" so we can be able to post our videos of your game failing, instead of having to describe the scene where I begin moving my train that is next to signal AN 121 (displaying a proceed aspect) and it gives the unneeded "service failure" message. Remove this now.

    A text report of the occurrence should suffice, giving details of the route, service and time it happened. Service failures generally occur because an AI train somewhere on the route has had a SPAD or other incident (though the verdict out on whether this should nerf the player train). In the case of steam traction, if you are on manual firing probably because you forgot to open the firebox door to trigger the process (which to all intents is still automatic) and comes under user error.
