    When doing service "N542-A Load Coal", roughly 500 yard before the 2nd objective marker, I get an error I passed a signal at danger. I redid the service, requested permission to pass next signal, got no confirmation at all. There is no signal to be found ahead of me, so there's no signal I could've passed.

    Anyone else experiecing the same issue or knows what I did wrong?

    Yeah, getting the exact same problem. Some bug with the time table scenario. Hopefully they'll fix it soon.

    Might be an AI SPAD.

    Is that even a thing in TSW? Are there any known cases where AI does a SPAD?

    Surely not!?! Has this been posted in the troubleshooting section of the forums?

    Yep, it used to happen quite frequently in one of the GWE scenarios for example.

    Yesterday it happened to me in TSW2 while playing LU. I finished a service and just gave control of the train to the AI. It started moving very slow (like 2 mph) instead of moving at the "normal" speed (should have been like 10 mph there). It took it a few minutes to get to the station from the siding. The train did not stop to load passengers, then went past the red signal causing a SPAD (ending the game).

    YES!!!!! I hadn't thought of the "AI SPAD" situation identified by others in this thread, but it certainly makes sense and falls into a pattern of general sloppiness and incompetence on the part of whoever created the CSX activities for TSW2. We the purchasers deserve a sincere, groveling apology and a speedy reissue of all TSW2 CSX scenarios and sessions (I can't say the same for the other two routes only because I'm not playing them at all).

    Has this issue been fixed yet, perhaps as of last night's update?

    I'm on PS4, but no, they didn't fix it.

    Still no fix. It goes to error as soon as the last empty coal xxx passes the red light back at the end of the train. I tried uncoupling a few wagons just before the light and no luck. I tried uncoupling half the train sitting just after the light and no go. Guess this service is a non playable until fixed.
