Great Route especially for long haul fun. I have made some freight and passenger activities and keep getting "Activity completed" message part way through the activity. For example, place start point at Las Vegas and end point east of Trinidad. When I leave Raton platform activity quits and get the Activity Completed text message.
I have made lots of activities on other routes such as the Kicking Horse Pass route, Seattle Route and MP default route with no such problems. Anybody out there have any ideas what I may be doing wrong or missing?

RE: Raton Pass Activity-Premature Activity End message

Had the same problem with an activity I created on a new stretch of line I was building. The problem seems to be that their must be a station destination "checked Off" beyond the point where you want the activity to normally end. This requires placing a "Platform" marker at a point beyond where it is abnormally ending and be sure to check it in the activity editor. Let me know if it works for you....it did for me.

Within the 'windows' menu open the 'action events' and delete the default event 'stop at last station'. This will prevent your activity from ending. If you want it to end somewhere add a location event that ends the activity instead.Frank

Thanks for the help.
All is now working OK. I did the Action Events thing i.e. deleted the "stop at last station" line and this solved my problem.
