    So I stopped at Piccadilly Circus right on the stop marker and When I went to get moving again and the train did not apply any power, I checked the saloon lighting and it was off so I am under the assumption that I have stopped on a dead part of the track. How am I supposed to get moving again, considering I stopped right on the marker.

    You didn’t open a window did you?
    Also try turning the lights on does it work?

    No, the window was closed however I don’t see how that would affect the power going to the train. The saloon lights and the headlight switches were both on however only the headlights were actually on.

    The Windows are safety features on the train & when you open it the power is turned off

    There's a cutout switch for each window to allow windows to be opened and not stop the train moving.

    I'm having the same issue whenever I exit Queens Park Westbound. I just completely lose power as soon as I accelerate to leave the station every time. I've never opened the windows and not touched any lighting.

    This will be becuae you are going over a junction which will cause an electric train to lose power for a moment but the power will come back on when the contact shoe hits the 3rd rail, in other words, when you have cleared the junction.

    Well that's what I figured, but I stop at the station correctly, and then accelerate out of it normally, and I get stranded every time without fail over the junction.
