    I am trying to use the Trenton line with 4600 series but it randomly stops after Newark International and New Brunswick with train stop penalty and beeping slower than with the ACTS normally, it will not let me acknowledge it and will not move again. How am I supposed to get this to move and get it so it doesn't just stop? There is no instruction on this other than the Providence and that is different though that only works at 20 the whole time.

    Edit: Tried the route again, same thing happens. There's no manual, nothing on tutorials covering ops systems. I try taking over services with the same 4600 but the pantograph does not raise and it will not move despite showing voltage on the OBD. I can't get any information on anything with regards to US trains because information is restricted so there is nothing about any systems that are disabling the train. Even trying the tutorials and covers nothing to do with that stopping. It seems like I just wasted my money on this, it is completely useless.

    Edit 2:

    Edit 3: I tried the ACS cab car and that is also not working no matter what I try.

    It’s a bug. They’ve acknowledged it and said they believe it’s fixed in the next patch.
    In the meantime, if you turn off ATC and ACSES until your next station stop you can keep going.
    Once you unlock the doors, turn it back on.

    This is why I have no intention of buying this route until its fixed.

    Is it safe to drive without the systems enabled since I can approach the train in front? Or would it be a case of running at 20 for the whole route?

    I usually just follow what the cab signals tell me instead of going full line speed since you never know what's in front of you, how close your are, etc. Better to be safe than to brake suddenly cuz a train is right in front of you. Only time I won't follow the adu or the speed at all is when I do depot moves since they are extremely tedious. 3mph as you approach the yard

    Why not try posting this in the technical forums where it belongs otherwise to solve this try cold starting the ALP-46 NJ Transit.

    Volvo B10M no it’s technically not safe in reality. But if you learn the US signals you can run to those.
    Keep in mind US signaling sometimes allowed you to approach a train in front at 15 mph, stopping on sight

    I think all you have to do is put the brakes in lap or service and acknowledge it then you can continue on. The atc and aces just wants you to apply the brakes.
