I tried to finish this service twice now, both Times with the result that i get stuck between 2 red lights. The way for the AI train is blocked by my last vehikel, and i cannot move forward or backwards. Anybody any idea how avoid this situation? I cannot use any switches.
This post is extrimely old but I just ran into the same situation and I can simply say that using the new Interactive map in TSW5 i simply eliminated the train blocked by the caboose. After eliminating the train the signal turn yellow and it is possible to proceed. Alternatively, if this does not work for you for some reason, you can perform the same action with the God Mode mod from train sim community.
