    Anyone been having door trouble with the M3 on LIRR? I just ran Hicksville Handler and hated every minute!!

    I could open doors no problem with either the key controls in the cab or by using the d-pad left/open doors. When I came to close the doors every time neither of these options worked, only running down the platform and manually shutting each door let me proceed!

    If it hadn’t been a scenario linked to a trophy I would have abandoned it right away!

    Did you have the brakes applied? They're a requirement that isn't explained afaik.

    I’ve done that scenario and the doors worked perfectly. Had you maybe turned the door control switch off (it’s near the marker light switch). I don’t know what that does, but I’m guessing it would cause your issue.

    I have had similar. It would not let me close the doors.

    It crazy they don't cover this in the tutorial you are suppose to put the brakes on 1 or higher but the game make's you put it on 5 & higher to operate the doors

    Brakes must be applied at 50% or higher or the doors to open.

    The problem I had was not knowing about the 50% brake, been fine after that.

    when I arrive at a station in any loco I have a tendency to ‘clean up the brakes’ and put them to minimum while I’m in the platform so I can be off quicker once permitted. In the case of the M3 though this causes an issue with the doors
