Second time I’ve had this issue with the Vectron. Not using PZB or LZB, just Sifa. Didn’t miss a Sifa as there’s no alerts being shouted at me by the system. Throttle becomes unresponsive - the square around the indicator on the hud goes red and train eventually stops as no power. Tried the usuals - checking main circuit breaker, brakes, train power etc. Nothing. Is there something I’ve missed?

Is there something I’ve missed? Last time I just had to restart the scenario. Update: reloaded the scenario, turned off Sifa, tried again. Happens at exactly the same point, about 5km from the end of the ‘Special Delivery’ scenario, taking the final Vectron to Riesa. Throttle won’t respond.
After getting a single valid tip, I also did a fair bit of research to understand more better. See if this helps out. Maybe a bit of overkill? << in case you don't except all cookies.
Thanks - this has been really helpful, turns out that bit is a neutral section outside of Riesa. I assume there are trackside signs to look for that indicate it. I had to hold the circuit breaker closed for a few seconds.
Glad that was of help, yeah on the German routes keep an out for those signs, and at speed they seem to come up quickly
