Oct-22-01, 08:40 AM (EST) "Cutbank Grain Car Sorting" Hi,I´m trying to complete this mission and and I can´t find the place to leave the boxed car...
I left the first cars in the indicated position, then I tried to left the boxed car parallel to the other 3 grain cars already in the game track.
Then I went to get the 13 grain cars and procced to east bound....but a few seconds after crossing an avenue with lots of cars I receive a message telling me that I didn´t acomplished the mission....ordering to go back to cutbank...
Any tips please ???Another thing, is there a way to see a track map (station names) while travelling ? I can see only the track monitor for signals, etc...but nothing track´s station names.Thanks,
Ulisses

Reverse to the team track (back several hundred yards). Drop the box car there. Pull forward and continue to where you can switch tracks. Then reverse to where the loaded grain cars are.

Also, the number keys for different views 1,2,3,etc.bob Remove | Alert Edit | Reply | Reply With Quote | Top

Oct-27-01, 05:26 PM (EST) 3. "RE: Cutbank Grain Car Sorting" Thanks for the help,F6 helped a lot to find the correct track to leave the boxed car.
I think I did everything correctly, I left the boxed car at the right place, I got the 13 grain cars and proceed to east, but I still get a message telling me that I didn´t acomplished the mission....ordering to go back to cutbank...
I´m sure I did the 3 procedures.....maybe I have to left one machine at cutbank ? I don´t think so...
Please anyone that finished this activity please help...I did it more than 10 times without success...Thanks a lot,
