I have had a situation where AI trains were getting stuck at red signals on the Boston to Providence route while having free track in front of them. This was caused by the fact that I used a mod ( God Mode ) to shift time forward, causing a major deadlock with delays. It was great fun, this is not a complaint, more of a curiosity question. While playing in timetable mode, you can delete those AI trains. I did that, and somehow trains started running again. However, my question is... what happens to those services? Are they removed completely from the timetable, in a way that they won't spawn anymore on the route? I especially wonder about those services that are working that shuttle route between Boston and Stoughton. Do these ever go away from the "game world" or are they only working back and forth? Because I can imagine if I delete one of these trains that never use a portal, they won't be spawned again. However, if I delete a train that is going towards a spawn point, I'd expect ( or hope ) that they're going to be spawned again.
if the train is gone it doesn't exist anymore. the service still exists if it's being repeated and a new train will be spawned for it to be done, but other than that it's most likely gone
