    Hi All, never posted a bug before so not sure if this needs to go to JT or DTG via the bug reporting.

    I’ve not completed any runs properly yet due to bugs I’ve tried the same route twice and had issues. Details below

    Platform - Xbox Series X
    Mode - Timetable
    Loco Type - Class 86/4
    Service - 09:15 @ Preston (6M24 Mossend NY to Dee Marsh)
    Layers - All JT routes, West Cornwall, TVL (don’t think NTP is included?)
    Issue - after detaching wagons at Warrington and running into Arpley Yard just as I get to the stop signal the locos derail and the session ends. I’ve ran this twice and it’s the same outcome. The second time I was well below the speed limit.

    Not sure if others are having similar issues. I too have the blurry textures but we are all aware of that!

    that could be because the stop point that shows on your cab view might be slightly wrong
    compare it to the map press 9 and see if there is a difference
    i had the same issue with some class 08 runs

    I have the stop marker distance and coloured shadow set to on, and I was about a loco length for the shadows when it derailed. I’m not sure if what we see in game and the actual triggers are differently placed though,so you may well be right. Thanks for the reply.

    Tried this again today, stopped the locos 61yards from the stop point (red light) and there was no trigger. Released the brakes and applied a little power, at 60 yards the loco derailed and flipped on its side

    will try that service later too
    to see if it happens here too
    i had some derailments on other services and with stopping somewhat earlier i could finish the task

    i was able to finish it
    tip on how to do it
    make sure that all the junctions are set correct (all manual junctions there)
    certainly on the last part when you have to reverse the locs
    my reverser was stuck in only forward maybe aws related on shutting down properly no idea
    so i just shut the loc down and switched to the other end made sure all junctions where set correct
    an was able to finish it
    depending on how fast you are ?
    there was a train just before me that went over the track so i had to wait a little after that i set the junctions
