New timetable has unsuitable electrification 11/08/2014 at 17:59 #63745

I am trying to edit the TT in the attached save, but it says "New timetable has unsuitable electrification" and then "the driver has now been told of the amended timetable" but the timetable is never changed.

I am trying to change the join activity on 1D84.

Any ideas?

There is no electrification anywhere in the sim.

It is interesting - the train in question has no power and it even resists assigning another timetable through Run to another timetable command, even if the new timetable is a newly crafted one without any power. I could understand it wouldn't like a timetable with initial power (as it has none), but it seems to be even trickier.

Wondering actually if this is a bug in the latest loader - I've just witnessed a locomotive lose its engine (I'll post another thread in a second, in the Wembley Mainline sim).

Well, I doubt this has something to do with the latest loader, since the report refers to the old exe version of NWC.

The train doesn't have a loco. There is a TCF snagging the points behind the arriving train, so the incoming loco has detached at the front with no way of running it round.

So I created a new light engine 0K21 from the depot to shunt the coaches to a different platform and release the trapped loco. The plan nearly worked except I couldn't change 1D84's TT to join to 0K21 instead of 0K19. That's when I got the error.

Really? North Wales Coast is now a loader sim, I didn't see anything referring to the exe (unless I missed it).

The save is certainly not in the newer file format, so I suspect Finger is correct.

I can only add that it would be best to try this on the loader, the .exe version of NWC is no longer supported.

"Passengers for New Lane, should be seated in the rear coach of the train " - Opinions are my own and not those of my employer

I had no idea there was a loader version. Must have missed that memo.

Loader version of north wales Coast came out at the same time as north east wales. (Shortly before the July meet so aprox 1 month now) it has been the second item of news on the home page for 3 weeks. Here's the link to the news article for reference
