    Greetings,

    Here are a list of defects I found so far in Free Roam mode on several routes:
    1) Cajun Pass - Barstow Yard Line 24 - a set of cars that cannot be coupled to from either end due to ending up with a Player AI Collision error, before even touching the cars, sometimes 1 car away from the set.
    2) Winter York - York Station Line 11 - a train is sitting on an X switch with lines turned against it. Normal operation will derail the train.
    3) When assembling long trains, coupling to a long train, it will build up speed and runaway without power applied to locomotives, up to & include 40mph+ into derailment.
    4) Container cars will flip on the side randomly, when the rail next to it is being used to couple another train.
    Overall throughout the entire game:
    1) Lights on British locomotive are worthless, painted on the face, do not illuminate anything at night. Same problem with German locomotives, although they seem to have a 10ft. illumination (no help).
    2) Stations and illuminated surroundings on British routes at night are also bad lighting, cannot see anything.

    Hope this helps,
    C.R.

    This is like Real Life
    Unless you are using a modern loco with proper light you don't get any illumination forward. 12-26-2007_161.JPG
    This Class 47 has a headcode box with the reporting number showing thru only where the white numbers are - no other illumination of the track for the driver.
