Would the experts please run the attached save and tell me what happens.

It's regarding what happens in the Milford West sidings. I seem to be getting problems when I run it :/
Hopefully you'll see what I mean.

Thanks

I have taken a look at your save and can see what is going on.

You have 2 6K92's in sim one is at Milford West Sidings P3 and one in the process of arriving in P11.

The 6K92 in road 3 has UID of 6K92S he seeded as an unpowered train and he is currently waiting for a light loco (0K92/0K921320) which arrives at 1335 then forms 6K92A/6K921354.

The 6K92 in the process of arriving into P11 has the UID of 6K920632 on arrival he will detach the engine off the front and then depending on the DOTW will either wait for a new loco (0K46/0K460922) and will form 6K46/6K46FX1016 or will berth as 6K46/6K46STABLE unpowered.

As the DOTW in your save is FRI the next train for 6K92/6K920632 after detaching the engine will be 6K46/6K46STABLE.

Are you saying that 6K46 has no further workings and it's ok for me to just continue running the sim?
I thought that something had gone wrong.

Thanks.

If my memory serves me correctly (which is rarely the case these days), the same happens to another train in the sidings which also had no engine.

This was some time in the afternoon sim time. I panicked and went back to a much earlier sav, but fortunately kept a later save.
