Hello everyone!This is my ACTIVITY-problem:In front of my train is driving other traffic. But, when the train in front of me, is going to a switch, te train stops and I can't get it over that switch in anyway. That's a pity, because it's nice when you've traffic in front of you, that also can across switches. A line without switches isn't possible, because we're building reality. I hope someone of yours have THE solution.Thanks!

RE: TRAFFIC AND SWITCHES

Does the AI train in front of you clear the switch? HAve you tried a pair of reverse points on the AI train path, that should clear the signals and let you go. And finally the player path, did you check and make sure that it is on the main verses using the siding?Kevin Arceneaux
