    See video.



    At 02:00 I try to take a screenshot, but camera keys 2 and 3 take me to the rear of the train.
    The train was behaving different that I expected, until I found out the gradient HUD was reversed; it showed uphill when going down, and downhill when going up. Most clearly shown on the steep grade near Lackenby Steel Works. See 21:15 at the video.

    Tees Valley seems to have an issue knowing what is forwards and what is back. It’s a long standing bug.

    Also make sure that you know which end of the locomotive you are driving!

    I've played one time table confirming above problem.
    Also the view from outside seemed wrong way round [normally view-3 puts at the front first].
    I noticed that I was sat in cab 2. Shouldn't make any difference though.

    When the 20 was released, a copious amount of fudge was used to get it to work. Bugs like this are a side-affect sadly.

    So the issue of TVL thinking trains are reversing and the issue of TSW2 not reversing the gradient when a train is reversing have combined to make this bug. Nice. Add the bug introduced by the class 20 making all doubles go nose to nose and you have a right pickle of a situation for DTG to fix.

    And now we're starting to guess how long it will to take to finally fix this. And I don't mean how long it will take for a first update ...
