Could the IM cranes be programmed so that they operate while they are not the selected vehicle in the game? It takes a lot of time to unload and load 40 or more cars. I'd like to handle trains while (un)loading IM trains.

RE: IM Cranes

I agree with Yellowsignal. I can understand the cranes moving slowly, but it would be nice to be able to do something else while loading/unloading IM. How does everyone else feel about this?

I agree as well. Keep them running slow, but let us be able to work other trains at the same time.Paul Metzger

I talked to Jim about this a while ago and he did have a pretty good reason for not doing it, let him explain it to you.I agree that it takes longer but Jim said it pretty much had to be that way.Chris Lee
