just finished playing motherwell, really enjoyed it, but have a problem on it. 1M11 is shown as a seeded train at beginning of the sim, 1C11 joins it at carstairs, no problem, but at the end of the sim going into the second day 1C11 appears waiting to join 1M11 at carstairs, but 1M11 does not appear on the sim from glasgow. any reason why it does not show. also thinking of re-installing motherwell again but is licence valid for second time.

Licence should still be valid, as it's to a particular PC to run that sim rather than a specific sim; indeed you can have multiple instances of the loader and/or simulation on that licensed PC.

1M11-2 should enter at Rutherglen at 23:48. Were you running in a scenario where train delays were enabled? If so, did you check the individual TT of 1M11-2 to see if there was a delay to that train?

Apologies - I was referring to the 2006 TT as issued with the sim. I can't speak for the 1990 TT (and didn't even know there was one issued).

There isn't one, so splash should presumably talk to whichever author gave him the TT.

Would have been a bizarre session then as the Larkhall trains must all have been deleted from the TT before entry or manually removed by Hand of God. :yikes

If there is a 1990 timetable can anyone say where it can be downloaded from. I have enjoyed running the sim so much I reckon it would be a great addition to the family.

The Sim will run timetable that are intended for different eras. However, you will get a warning if the timetable contains invalid trains and these will not run, but everything that validates will.

To help others that may do the same in future, what did you do with all of the Larkhall trains while you were running the sim?

Just to confirm, 1M11 (up Scotrail 'Lowlander' sleeper) seems to join portions at Carstairs as intended when using correct era for supplied timetable.



Oh - how much would I love a mid 1980s TT to recreate this area from my 'bashing' days!

What's the gen? Dithering between Glasgow or Edinburgh portion...

No smartphones back then with up to the minute train running info - but far more fun!

PS Portions joined successfully and 1M11-4 away on time, however I was left with 0Z00 in Carstairs UPL with 'Terminated - no more timetable trips'.

Given that the loco sits there for several hours until the down portion splits, you'd probably be quite bored of waiting by the time it's due to leave at 28:00 or something!

Not quite as bored as waiting for 5S96-2 Shieldmuir Royal Mail to Mossend ECS to leave at 2930, though :lol:
