Kings Cross Loco Sidings 31/05/2018 at 12:01 #108359

1120 posts 		I'm running one of the new May 2018 timetables and I have a Class 91 loco stabled there which is timetabled to run to Bounds Green depot via the Down Slow 2 at Finsbury Park then via Hertford North and Stevenage.

However the sim has kicked in saying "wrong route, no suitable traction"

I thought that these sidings WERE wired up or are they not wired up?

1120 posts 		Then why do I get a error message saying wrong traction for route?

The route is Loco Sidings K19 to Kings Cross Belle Isle to Holloway South to Finsbury Park however it's a valid route further more, when I try to do anything with the timetable it blabs on that "new timetable has unsuitable electrification" this is despite the fact that it's a Class 91 with all the right boxes ticked and I've tried it with both the new era and the old era with two results.

The Old era doesn't present a issue YET the New era refuses to allow a electric loco to access the loco sidings at Kings Cross even though they should be wired up?

You can seed a electric loco in the sidings there but you can't move it as the sim refuses to allow you - can this please be raised as a fault on Mantis because this has GOT to be a bug seeing as it works fine with the old era but not the new era.

There was an unrelated instance of overhead DC box ticked instead of overhead AC.

Edit:- Specific WTT name and source?

I've tried a May 2018 timetable from another forum and also tried https://www.SimSig.co.uk/File/Details/1114 by swapping the diesel loco for a electric loco which goes into the loco sidings and still have a issue.

Please note that I don't have a issue with the Old Era but it's the Modern era which for some reason refuses to play ball.

I have also double check and triple check that the power settings you mention above are right which they are, it's just the sim in the modern layout refuses pointblank to have anything to do with the movement of electric locos to and from that location.

I have the same issue as AJAX103.

Until this problem is rectified, is the only coarse of action to cancel 0P03?

I decided to Abandon it's timetable. That'll stop the driver phoning and keep things quiet.

Ooops. It didn't. Cancelled the train.
