In the journey approx chapter 13 there is a service called S8 empty to depot A red signal is received on approach to langerfeld. Asking to pass this, you are given instructions to proceed at restricted speed. About 50yards later there is a ground signal at red, holding circle to pass this does not do anything. If you pass it anyway, you get service failed. On the map, the next signal is showing a proceed so assume this is a bug. Please fix as it is preventing progress on journey mode
I came across this bug last week and a workaround, at least on pc, is to creep by the red shunting disc as slow as possible, 0.1 kph or less.
Thanks will give this a shot. How far past do you have to be before you can speed up? Just the nose end?
When the next signal changes on the hud, which is green, your good to go. I think the front nose is just barely past the red signal when that happens.
I completed this recently by stopping at the red signal, saving the game, then loading it again. Upon loading, the signal is green and you can complete the journey as normal.
In my experience, this was about the first journey called "S8 Empty to Depot", just before the one called "S8 Empty from Depot". 5 journeys down the list, there is a second "S8 Empty to Depot" which starts the same and didn't suffer from red light weirdness. Recently, I tried this "S8 Empty from Depot" again a few times and it seems now you're just thrown out on foot in some random place with no train in sight. The destination in Wuppertal is usually far away. But fear not, just wait or walk around for just under 5 minutes and you bag 500 points and a bronze medal. It pays to be patient.
