    MBTA 815 is correctly listed under the F40PH, because it should be a depot move out of South Station. However, it is listed as a depot move into South Station. It gets weirder. You start in an F40 cab, but the train is in the Readville yard on the Fairmount line. It is pointing in the wrong direction. The game asks you to exit the vehicle, and if you walk to the cab car at the other end, the service is over! If you try to operate the F40 anyway, you will quickly be off the map. When I gave up control, the AI took over and also drove off the map. I wonder if the train will eventually show up in Boston, backwards, if you just let everything run for awhile? Probably not.

    Upon further review:
    The 815 turns out to be a depot move into South Station after all. Kind of. So, #1, it should be listed under cab car, not F40. However, the train in question is not in the depot. It arrives out of the Fairmount portal just after 13:54. So, #2, this service should probably just be removed from the game. There is no 815 depot move. I tried to hijack the train while it was moving, but I wasn't allowed to take over the service.

    This explains why the service spawns in Readville, I suppose. And also why the train is backwards: the game knows the train is heading to Boston, but you selected it out of the F40 menu, so, fail. I will now have this bronze medal forever.
