There is a shunt move (RAbt) due to arrive from E Katernberg Nord at 1545. The train is offered to me via the ZNP801 at 1542 (15:42 0RA EKN (no track number displayed)) but I am unable to accept it. I have tried inserting track numbers 530 and 556 then pressing the 'Accept' key (N) but i just get a question mark (?) appear. I also tried starting a new sim but the same thing has happened. I know that numerous bugs have been reported with Gelsenkirchen since an upgrade some time ago (I am running Version 3.5.0.37), could this be one of those bugs? If so, has anyone discovered a workaround? I've attached a saved sim to illustrate the problem.

 

 

Regards,

 

Phil.

I have found a workaround. Insert track 530 into thew missing track number field, then refuse the train (you can't refuse it without entering a track number, I tried that first). Then telephone EKN and tell him you can now accept the train and it appears almost straight away. The only issue now is what to do with it when it arrives as there are no movement orders and this shunt movement is not listed in the timetable in Help/F1.

Hi Phil,

 

this shunt move is last one of a series.
At 8:40 hrs Ng 64081 arrives at EG track 028. With several shunt moves a part of the wagons goes to Rotthausen for unloading, then another part to the goods yard in EG an the last part goes to Essen-Katernberg Nord. The unloaded wagons are always stabled on track 027 after the arrival form unloading. So, the empty RAbt from EEKN has to move somehow to track 027 and couple with the other empty wagons.

Finally, the empty wagons and the loco build the train Ng 64084 which departs from EG to EWAN at 16:15 hrs from track 027.

 

If you have started the simulation later and don't find any empty wagons on track 027 then let this RAbt become the new train on track 027.

 

Regards
Helmut

Hi Helmut, 

 

Yes I have all the other wagons on track 027 from earlier, so I'll make up 64084 as you say and send it on its way. Many thanks.

 

 

Regards,

 

Phil.
