Having an issue in Sand Patch with Fully Fuelled. I successfully got to the summit. Walked the mile back to the rear loco’s Did the unhook & got the “wait for a moment” Climbed into the cab of the front loco. Got it ready for lead, but couldn’t back up. Got it spinning the wheels but no go. Had a look up front & it was embedded in to the last car. I must have done something wrong but it’s a long one to redo if the results going to be the same. Anyone shed some light ?
Try loco/consist brake - bail off and wait. Apply full loco brake. Apply some power, wait 30secs or so, then release loco brake. I was never patient enough on these scenarios. It takes a 'long' time for the brakes to release and the consist to 'expand' / 'contract' before you can move.
I'll try that, next time. What about the front of the loco being embedded into the rear of the last car ?
