Recently started a solo game of Bristol. I'm running the "Summer Saturday 2008" timetable. The current time is 00:30 and I've got train 4V07 heading towards Portbury. I had already released the token for it before I saved & exited, the train has already left the short down line stretch at Ashton Junction and is currently occupying the penultimately displayed track circuit (or basically the track circuit after Ashton Jn Crossing) yet the token instrument is showing KEY IN, despite having previously released it. Thankfully doesn't seem to be having any affect on 4V07, and briefly running the save through at super duper uber awesome warp speed (fastest speed possible) up to about 00:45 and 4V07 reported as arriving at Portbury Stop Board, then vanishes off F2 Train List. Is this a known bug, a bug never found/reported, or what? As usual, reply/ies appreciated, thanks in advance.

I have also had some weirdness with Portbury tokens. I can't be sure which timetable it was though, but I think it was the same one. In my case I saved after a passenger train left Portbury. When I later restarted the sim, the driver refused to hand over the token at Ashton Junction and merrily disappeared in the direction of Temple Meads still clutching the only means of regaining possession of the track. Fortunately he wasn't timetabled to disappear off through the Severn Tunnel. I tried to set a route through the OTW and of course was refused as the token was still out. On his return to Ashton Junction I found I could route him back along the line without any complaint from the program and he then released the token on arrival at Portbury. I blame driver training, myself. Interesting that the sim records which trains are in possession of a token. Log in to reply |
