Upcoming Release Lirr Commuter: New York - Long Beach, Hempstead & Hicksville

not sure if this is a bug or an oversight - but... train no. 3806, around 8:17am... first off, when loaded into PIS, it displays wrong destination... and when you get to Long Beach Terminal, the switch isnt set up correctly... like, I am almost done with the service, 10 mins early... and I am like why is the marker on other track... so I look into the map and am like wtf, switch isnt set correctly... so I reversed... but as I was about to set the switch right, AI train started moving and ignored my train blocking the way, so it ended up derailing my train lol... not sure if this happened to anybody

 

I got derailed once coming out of long beach where I left a bit late , and an AI train coming out of one of the long beach sidings derailed me! There are no signals for those trains coming out of the sidings , so if you’re in the way , the AI trains will just hit you!

I think if you’re doing a service into long beach sidings you might have to make sure the manual switches are set correctly, but I’m no expert .

 

second time around I made sure to slow down to speed, then hit Alerter acknowledge, then quickly went into Route map and changed the switches and then spent like 10mins messing around on my phone to "Wait till..."

 

I can confirm you have to change the switch manually. It should automatically route you to the proper track with this being a passenger run but I guess this service was not programmed like that. If you arrive early into the wrong track, wait for the AI train to depart, then back out of the siding, and switch the lever to the proper track to end the service

 

since I knew about it, on my second run, once I stabilized my speed to >5 mph, I pressed Q to give myself time before Alerter beeps, quickly went into Route map and switched the tracks to correct setting
