    Hey there.
    When i make an RHTT formation with either a class 20, 31 or 37 at either end, the multiple working jumper cables do not connect, only the brake hoses. This is not a big issue i know, but they should connect and they don't. Can this be added to the fix list please?

    Ta.
    Terrone.

    The 20/31/37 use Blue Star, the RHTT we have only uses AAR 27 way. The two systems are not compatbile. For blue star to work it needs the appropriate jumper cable and control air pipes. In other words it needs a different type of RHTT wagon.

    No it doesn't, the RHTT wagons are equipped to either system, that's why you can see class 37's on them, also if you look at the couplings on the TSW RHTT wagons, you will see that both the AAR and Blue Star multiple working sockets are present.

    The AAR system doesn't use the dedicated air control pipes.

    Yes I know mate, and the RHTT wagons are fitted with those air control pipes.
