    Hello,

    I downloaded a third party route but I can't seem to route an electric train through a certain section of it. The entire route is electrified and I can run diesel locomotives on it just fine, but I cannot run electric locomotives https://vidmate.bid/ through a neutral section and I have no idea why. The game will not give me a route and my service just fails.
    Anyone have any idea as to why?

    Thanks!

    Which route is it? I haven't seen this before on any electric route I've used, personally.

    The presence of overhead wires does not mean a route is Electrified.
    Electrification is in the individual track properties

    In the route editor you can push the Space bar and the track view changes
    Track Property Views
    To view a track’s properties, press the spacebar to toggle between the following track properties:
    • Fully rendered track (as it will appear in a play session).
    • Line type
    • Line direction
    • Line speed
    • Track sounds
    • Track Electrification
    • Track-linked objects view
    In the Picture the sections of track that is white with the OH Flash will allow electric trains
    Black track with the OH Flash crossed out will not allow any Electric trains to work.
