I think it's because you are in "Manage Track Sections" mode. Change to "Select Track" and it should be moveable.
I found the 101 incredibly frustrating when I first came across it in NTP. It’s now become my favourite train and it gets driven around almost...
Yes try this guide and ignore all references to LiDAR files if you don’t intend to use it at the moment. Only the SRTM file is really necessary to...
My second go at making a route didn’t use the kml file at all. I think it’s only use is in marking out the position of the main track in the route...
I have found that after moving quickly around my route the editor doesn’t always keep up by loading the required tiles and it looks like some have...
On the subject of “create landscapes” I have been creating individual SRTM tiles this way by going to the edge of the existing tiles and placing...
Yes that’s certainly how I’ve been doing it and it works fine. I have some tiles off in the distance, a fair way from my tracks, which only have...
If you follow the tutorials as far as creating tiles using the lower resolution SRTM file that should give you an approximate landscape for...

Thanks for that I didn't realise it was so simple. Just tried it out and it all seems to work even using my favourite bog-standard...
The normal diamond crossing is just two straight lengths of track laid over each other in a shallow angle X. Then you change the mode to "Welding...
I wonder if anyone has managed to build a diamond crossing where each of the four approaches has two possible exits. I have seen a few on the...
I love how two sentences, as above, can completely clear up any misconceptions about a process. Thank you for that.
I must admit to being a bit confused. I don’t really understand the significance of track tiles and where kml data comes into the mix. Many if not...
Just found this website this evening. https://www.openrailwaymap.org/
It’s not clear, are you dragging the track to realign it? I’ve always deleted track that was not correctly placed and started again, which...
Thanks, that did the trick.
I'm using a very basic timetable to make short journeys as I add things to my route. I'm tired of having to use the console...
I’ve had to level up a few of my junctions by carefully tweaking nearby nodes until there was no step in the crossover rails. Then working...
Just tried this in Network Edit Select Track Mode by placing a buffer from London Faversham Content "BP_SEH_Buffer_01" onto the tracks and it...
I have had that problem and found that it was a good idea to ensure the parallel tracks had very similar heights and gradients in the crossover...
Where my own services have failed to start it was usually because the time of day in the game had progressed beyond the service start time. I know...
Thanks I’ll take a look at that. I’m still hoping someone from DTG will provide a tutorial or even a masterclass on painting grass and foliage...
Great stuff, I’m working on a Tyne Valley route and the thing I’m finding most difficult is getting my head around grass and vegetation. I’m sure...
You aren’t alone, a bit more info here.. https://forums.dovetailgames.com/threads/crossover-tool-not-working.75663/
I've found that if I keep the files (such as my timetable) that I need to use regularly open in tabs, when restarting the editor it tells me that...
I'm assuming you are in Network Edit mode and have selected the Yellow Cross, the 4th tool from the top on the left hand side. As you move the...
I’ve now used loads of assets from several routes in my 3rd rate attempt at recreating part of the Tyne Valley line. What I’d like to do is modify...
Much appreciated, I'm not sure what to suggest at the moment but expect the next thing to catch me out will be just around the corner. Simply...
It seemed counter intuitive that I could only select what looked like the main section of straight track immediately adjacent to the 'stump'...
Very useful info, thanks again GingerPitti . I need a lie down after today’s struggle so I’ll try that out tomorrow and report back.
Thanks for the reply. I had seen the dark blue guides appear a few times but as below wherever I click on the blue I'm still left with a red node...
I’m probably missing something in the Network Mode toolkit but I’m having trouble joining two tracks approaching from opposite directions. However...
I'd like a straightforward explanation of how to join two sections of track which are approaching each other at a good angle without ending up...
I’ve been really struggling with getting my own signals to work exactly as expected. I understand you have to go into “manage track sections” and...
I had the same problem and found I had to log into Google and enable the key for this type of use in the editor. I can’t remember exactly where I...
I’ve also had some dodgy terrain in some areas with huge walls when LiDAR was applied. Fortunately this was a fair way from the tracks so to keep...
