I've downloaded all the Motherwell updates and find that on the Shotts line, trains get "stuck" at EJ728. Running sim in Larkhall Branch scenario and 2006 TT v 4.2.3. Thought to myself "ah, re download timetables" but find all the 2006 TTs have vanished from the DL section............ Can anyone help, please? N. Log in to reply |

Running sim in Larkhall Branch scenario and 2006 TT v 4.2.3.Timetables which ship with the simulation are all downloaded via the check for updates service. If you delete the files from your computer then hit check for updates you'll get the latest version available.

Thanks very much - has done the trick. Only thing was, the "4.2.3" TTS did not D/L, but the originals working fine. Cheers N. Log in to reply |

The "original" is a file that you have just downloaded.

The file has av ersion number inside it (set in the F4 window) and time after time I have seen filenames not matching the file content. Even worse, if a TT author adds a version number in the notes field, you now have three places where a version number is shown, and three possible variations in version numbers, causing mass confusion!Thanks very much - has done the trick.

The latest version which Peter has recently uploaded is the plain vanilla TT name so this follows the current protocol. I fell into the trap of thinking that the plain vanilla must be the original released without serial number with the later v2, v3, etc. following. “In life, there is always someone out there, who won’t like you, for whatever reason, don’t let the insecurities in their lives affect yours.” – Rashida Rowe Log in to reply |
