    Similar situation. Started the scenario again and resetting the physics restored the ability to brake.

    Route continues to be very unstable. Attempting to reload a save of the S8 run mentioned above, TSW just crashed to desktop with a UE error message (first time sent to Epic but suspect that’s as far as it goes). Have subsequently done runs on other routes which saved and loaded fine. I even tried loading the S8 from a clean boot of the PC and clean run of TSW but the same issue occurred.

    Not sure how your system is set up, but I have had no stability issues with this route at all. Framerate and stutters, yes - my machine was coded in cuneiform - but no crash, ever.

    Are you running mods?

    Purchased the route today, very pleased on the whole with it.

    • 430 drives very nicely, sounds good and there’s no bugs with it
    • The timetable, whilst cut back, honestly isn’t as bad as lots of people say, the long distance station feels a bit desolate but I don’t spend much time doing high speed so that doesn’t bother me too much
    • Extremely well-modelled scenery and stations
    • After an abysmal first run, the frame rate sorted itself out and in 6 services I’ve not had one crash- no texture issues either
    • However, the lighting within the regional airport tunnel isn’t quite right, it’s too bright compared to the tunnels at Mainz and the Frankfurt hbf low level platforms tunnel
    • Passenger issues are the same as every tsw5 route, a decent number on platforms but most of them remain static, meaning my train is rather empty
    • At night, the cab is also a bit too bright compared to outside, feels a bit too artificial

    All in all, a very good route but there’s certainly a few things that could be improved. Can’t wait for the 420!

    Anyone else having trouble with the ice jobs. As soon as I leave the lzb section i get restricted to 27 for no reason signals all green and speed limit is 99. This going towards frankfurt.

    Tried to do a few runs of IC and ICE services from Frankfurt to Mainz/Wiesbaden and I’m always getting stuck at the end of the airport line to join the mainline. Tried deleting trains on the mainline but can’t seem to get the light to turn green.

    First, I've noticed that the route has become more laggy and stuttering inTSW6 for me. It's not a hardware issue, since I haven't changed anything about my PC lately. I'm gonna test it some more though, before jumping to conclusions.

    Second, a minor timetable issue:
    Service RB31 (29243) with the BR 642 is scheduled to arrive at Frankfurt at 07:24 on platform 20. But platform 20 is already occupied at this point, by an RE3 which is due to leave at 07:25. I was on time for the whole run, but then had to wait at the entrance signal until the RE3 left, causing an arrival delay of about 4 minutes.

    PS5: The bug with the rail crossing at S1 for almost every Rail crossing is still there. The crossings are closed yet the cars still drive over it and touch the Train. Very annoying and still there since Release back in May!!!

    Some timetable stuff:
    - The RE2 service has wrong PIS informations on the way to Frankfurt. On the trains and on the platforms "Koblenz" is displayed instead of "Frankfurt".
    - When the S8 or RB75 is leaving Mainz towards Wiesbaden a weird route is used with heading the train first into the left track (from Koblenz) and then again on the right track and then right to Wiesbaden. Meanwhile blocking other trains coming from Koblenz like the RE3, which is then delayed.
    - In MZ-Bischofsheim there seem to be some priority problems between the S9 from Frankfurt to WIesbaden and the RB75 to Aschaffenburg, The RB75 has to wait for the S9 entering the station and then leave, There would be enough time to first let the RB75 out. As unfortunertly traisn do not wait for green signals while instation it looks weird when the RB75 comes and stops for boarding, then drives to stop in front of the signal some meters ahead.

    It would be good to separate the RE3 Frankfurt-Saarbrücken layers from the RE13/RB31 layers to Alzey. As there are no LINT DMUs in TSW it makes sense to run the RE3 with BR 612, while the trains to Alzey would be more realstic with BR 628, like until 2014.
