    The Class 66 EWS, specifically the "Class 66 - EWS + 10 HAA Hoppers" fails to load in quick drive on any route. Attached are screenshots of the selection I made; and the aftermath of the game failing to load, providing an error message as well as the Class 66 selection disappearing in the menu behind. I am not sure which DLC the Class 66 in question comes from. The Class 66 EWS V2.0 works fine. I suspect this error may happen to other wagon combinations as well, but I have not checked. This is tested with a fresh game installation and with all files successfully validated. before.jpg after.jpg

    The Class 66 - EWS + 10 HAA hoppers comes with the Settle to Carlisle route
    I tried placing the loco + 10HTA wagon without a problem
    And I placed the HAA wagons on the track which appear as they should
    I don't know why the QD with the HAA wagons does not work

    You could report it but given it's now been out 8 years and they have not fixed the QD I would not hold out much hope

    Thanks for your reply, I would have thought this is the replace to report bugs? I do wish to report it, as it should definitely be fixed. Where should I report it if not here?

    Oh I didn't realise that site was for reporting everything. I've already been waiting a week not for someone to reply to me about issues regarding ownership of the North London Line. Crap service thusfar. I shall try to make a ticket of this issue as well if it gets noticed... Thank you.

    A fair few QD consists are broken. I would advise creating a new consist, even if to you it's the same thing. The game may be looking for an old reference or something like that

    Well if a fair few consists are broken then they should be fixed or removed. It's not up to me to fix their mess.

    I appreciate it's taking longer than usual, but I would expect at least my issue to be assigned to someone or to have an update after a week. I am a patient person, but I just don't like it when I feel ignored.

    You want an update on something that is not going to be fixed?
    It has been out 8 years - I doubt anything will be done
    You don't gain or lose points on a QD so just ignore it

    FYI it took 10 days from my ticket to getting a reply
    No. I did not get an update to say "fred" is looking at the problem - DTG don't do it that way
