    Hi love the route and locos but 90% of my layered BR Blue stock isnt working as intended i.e. only short runs are available and stock isnt spawning or where intended.
    How do I fix this please?

    The 87/86 should do full length runs. The 47 are mainly short runs. The 08 is just shunting and 101 is just short runs.

    might seem an obvious one but check if the layers have been accidently turned off. if its only the 08 47 87 and 101 that appear that would be the first place id check

    I hope it's okay to join in on this thread since its title seems to allow multiple questions/remarks as long as they pertain this route?

    4M12 Mossend to Red Bank part 2

    My question is regarding the mail route with the title above. I just finished this route pulling a large consist of mail coaches and dropping them off at the destination platform. However after uncoupling the coaches, nothing happened. Loco standing 10 feet in front of a red sign and no more prompts indicating how to continue. I got out of the loco and then a popup appeared asking me if "so and so could take over my train." first time i clicked no, of course, but after a few minutes the popup appeared again and i though why not? So this AI driver took off with my loco and now I don't know how to finish this schedule. It was a timetable schedule and I ended up on Preston Parcel Platform at 13:56:33 (well, that's when I arrived) and losing my loco.

    How do I successfully run this schedule? Seems like this run ended in a failure :(

    When you get out of the driving seat you will get a nag message screen asking if you want to give up control of that loco. You could be standing on the right hand side footplate watching the reason you are in a passing loop speed by or you could have jumped off the train and ran 2 miles back down the tracks, it will nag just the same.

    There is no way of adjusting this as far as I know or I would have it off permanently.
