Hi,
I have a newbie question so please bear with me. How do you get cars to uncouple? Is there some trick to it? I tried using the uncouple button on the yard page, but I could never get the car I wanted to uncouple. Any help is appreciated.Steve

Steve,Click near the end of one of the cars you wish to uncouple; you'll see a little white dot appear between the two cars. Then, you can hit "uncouple" (or the keyboard shortcut 'c') to uncouple the cars.However, do note that the entire string cars must be coupled to an engine, otherwise you won't be able to uncouple. (To uncouple cars in a loose cut, the "Operate loose cuts of cars" option must be enabled.)Please let us know what other questions you have; us vets are always glad to help out the newbies!-Dave
