    I've seen this around a couple of times but never in its own thread.

    Quite often, when spawning UK diesel locomotives (37, 40, 47 etc.) the game will randomly start spawning them in with the reversers locked in the Off position despite claiming they're in Engine Only. Needless to say this makes them completely undriveable. Is there a workaround for this?

    Have you turned the key on first ?

    Sorry for the delay in replying - this happens on most if not all routes.

    It happens on us diesels too. I found that you need to spawn the loco and set a path before touching any controls. If I spawn a loco and set the reverser, then set a path. It locks it in the off position for some reason. It doesn't always happen though.
