    Started playing Salzburg to Rosenheim last night driving the Dosto. Go to Freilassing, stopped to pick up passengers. Tried to restart and throttle didn't do anything. Reset to start again and nothing. Switched to Blackpool South to Ormskirk on the pacer. Got to Midge Hall to stop for token change and again throttle not working. Reset dynamics and still not working.
    Anyone else having similar problems or ideas. Don't know if it is a fault or me just being stupid. (Always a possibility). Thanks

    On the German trains you need to make sure the throttle is in 0 before reapplying power from stationary, have you done this

    Also check the electric brake hasn't remained applied after coming to a stand.

    for me playing only german routes, you need to set throttle to 0 when standing on the platform, and when ready to go, release the brakes and slowly add throttle (so not instand 100% because that can cause a wheelslip)
