    Hi all,
    I'm running the BHBP v4.1 Castle Penzance to Cardiff scenario and every time regardless of saving or running straight through I get to Saltash and the signal halfway down the platform is at red so I wait.
    Whilst waiting I am unable to operate the doors. In front of me waiting at a red on the single lined bridge is another train operating the PLY to PNZ service. The points are set for me to proceed onto the bridge but they need to be set for the other service to clear and enter the station. I have tried to change the points but the error is I'm blocking the line? Anyone tried this scenario or knows how to fix it without trashing the rest of the scenario?
    Cheers folks.

    One way to fix it would be to remove the other train you are waiting for.

    I presume it travels over the bridge and you never see it again so the loss would not make much difference.
    Put a trap time in at Saltash as arriving and not waiting might mean you leave early and throw something else out

    I have this route. Is this the scenario that is about 245 miles long? If you have a done save on it this could be the problem.

    Trevkiwi, yes it's the Penzance to Cardiff, ending at Bristol. I did do a save on it but sorted it by removing the offending loco in ts tools. I've now got to to work out why there are a load of missing consists when running it, but loco swap states that everything is green.

    I have a funny feeling that the manual doesn't list all the required stock. I think that I was going to try the scenario you mentioned and it came up with a missing rail vehicle VP Class 57/6 GWR. So I checked for it in the route manual and where to get it but it isn't mentioned. By digging a bit further I think I found it on VPs site and downloaded it. I have yet to try the scenario again to see if it works.

    Thanks for the help ;) The class 57 is the night sleeper and I found it was missing the sleeper coaches downloaded from Superalbs, I ended up getting the 57 from VP and the sleeper coaches from ATS and it now works, I know there are 3 or 4 others that are missing from driving the scenario so I'm going to make a note of the service and find out what skins are playing up. If you do manage to give it a go (over 4 hours) can you let me know if the track changes to Kuju standard after the Whiteball tunnel as I only noticed it on this scenario but not on the PLY to PAD one. Thanks again.

    The main thing I'm missing is Class 800. Most of the scenarios use the AP 800, which I don't have. I shall have to purchase it sometime.

    I presume you already have the 801 that came with the ECML - London to Peterborough?

    If I did not have the AP 800 pack I would clone the Scenario and replace the GWR 801's with HST's
