I trid to create an Activity with a consist of 3 locomotives and 7 other assorted wagons and carriages. But because I only wanted one locomotive to have tractin I specified the other 2 with the line Wagondata in the consist file. I got an error message while loading the activity.

I'll make this real quick.
Give me an email address where I can send you an instruction file on making HEP cars. It'll tell you how to turn off the tractive effort in an engine, while leaving the weight in the consist.
