    I didn’t get an NTP update. I got the TSW Version 1.46 update, but that was it. I don’t own the BR 204 DLC.

    That sucks. Was hoping they would fix it . Our hopes are dashed again. It might work on the new Xbox series X with the extra memory and speed we can only hope .

    Sorry should have been clearer . It crashes when you got 2 class 40s hooked up hauling heavy oil tanks.

    I did a Xbox one X system reset to clear cache ,reloaded game got to miles platting with 2 class 40s saved the game at the station ,then exited game to main menu. Click on NTP tab then click on last played should let you carry on into manchester.not sure about og Xbox and s model. Hope this helps if you understand it. My Gramma is terrible.

    Probably what is making a fix harder, is that it doesn't seem to happen to everyone. For every few people who report it, there will be a few who say they've never had a problem.

    Few weeks back Sam said that one of the key issies for staff was fixing Miles Platting glitch. Like otjer above excited to see 5gb update this mist sort it out as top priority at DTG...No chance! Same issues - you can save the game just before it crashes but then you get no medal and the service shows that it hasnt been completed. I'm at level 415 and havent got many more timetable items to complete. Apparently console owners out number PC players - so how about showing us some love as this has been an issue for months - can we get it sorted before TSW2?

    Good morning/afternoon,

    I'm fairly new to the game, but have had this experience with the game crashing. I tried it with passenger service on the CL45 and CL47 Leeds to Manchester Victoria. The crash happens for me when I'm about 0.8 miles from the 15mph speed limit post (that post appears after I cross the 40mph post I think). It's frustrating because I'm trying to get my miles done (for the achievements) on the CL45 and then work on the CL47. I'm also perplexed as to what changes were made with the updates we received yesterday (beyond the clearly explained DB BR 204 update I suppose). I've checked these forums for the past 24 hours and still no word on what's been done.

    I've not tried it with any freight and two locomotives going from Leeds to Manchester Victoria. I've had success running services from Manchester Victoria to Leeds. I've got the achievement done for the CL45 (450 miles operated), but have given up on the route for the time being to focus on other achievements on other routes.

    Matt said the patch wasn't successful on recent live stream and shrugged his shoulders and said "C'est la vie" - sums up the saga well...

    I managed to finish 2 services leeds to Manchester with no crash ,massive frame drop though. I used class 40 and 45 . Only one loco on each service one passenger service , one oil tank service. For added bonus mastery tracked now finished tier 2 on NTP . good times.

    That isn’t the attitude towards a game just sort it out I know it probably hard but people love this route and nothing being done

    I will say that I've run some services on LIRR and seemed to do a lot better than when I tried it a month or so ago. I might give some westbound services a try on NTP this afternoon/evening.
