Does anyone know what could possibly cause this message other than a red light? I'm just driving along minding my own business, all is "green" and all of a sudden I make a stop at a station and --there comes the message and my activity ends! Is this message able to be disabled at all?All help is appreciated.Mike S.

Hi,I only know that a red light can cause this message.
You say you stopped at a station. After that, did you drive a little bit back so you hit a red signal at the end of the platform? This signal is probably facing the "wrong" side.
Disabling is - general spoken - not possible.
Only by changing the route and the type of the signals. But that can destroy the possibilities of creating activities for this route.

If your train is at all long, the slack could have run out even though your engines remained stopped and taken your tailend car thru the red.

Mike, were you running the Tokyo route? If so it's a known bug. The signals at the other end of the platform are so close to the end of the platform, that if your train is hanging over the slack action will do this.
