LAST EDITED ON Apr-21-03 AT 02:55 PM (EDT)

Is it possible to successfully program an engine to run around to push cars into a siding... I am really trying to get the hang of the activity editor thing... I am building an activity for the Full Bucket Line... I am West bound, FBL RS1 with 10 gondolas and a caboose, into Lenas Mining siding... I need to get the engine around back to push the empties into the siding... I have tried it both ways (Leave train on Main and Leave train on Siding) to attempt the run around and both fail... I get around the train OK, but then I get a "red" going into the siding... Permission denied when requesting to proceed through a red...The activity editor part looks OK because I get the path to terminate on the proper spur... Could it be related to some switches are automatic and some are manual ???Help ?
Thanks,
Scott
