Hmm, I can't even get to Rautas in that scenario. I get stuck in Bergfors where you should meet Gt 42604, but that train gets stuck just after leaving Kiruna.

I will investigate further...

Thanks for short reply!
In Bergfors I was able to wait (a long time) until the train comes. So far it works on my system.

I will try this again, if possible tomorrow or on the week end.

Kind regards

I'm running through the scenario now with all trains as AI trains. It's a bit easier as you can just let the sim run in the background without having to control any train yourself.

Waiting for the meet at Rautas now so we'll see how it goes...

I sent up a drone to have a look when the trains meet.

The switch at Rautas was laid correctly, so Gt 9914 passed on track 1 while the veteran train waited on track 2. I think unfortunately the dispatcher just does weird things sometimes!

A few things to consider:
- Make sure to be on time, as AI trains generally just look if the next signal block is free. If you're late, AI trains may move into track where you don't want them, or they can get stuck in the wrong position because they are not able to find a valid route.
- Never start a scenario directly from the route or scenario editor as this causes all sorts of weird problems with signalling and the dispatcher.

Hello Hgv

thank you for your investigation!

I am sure that I arrived in Rautas absolutely on time. Probably 2 minutes earlier than the timetable.
But I will certainly try again.

Suggestion:
I would like to see a scenario by driving an iron train from Kiruna towards Narvik. May just the route Kiruna to Stenbacken. In such scenario it comes to different train crossing, like empty iron trains back from Narvik. Super it would also exist an overtaking passenger train at a station on the route. Would such a scenario be possible? I would be very happy with a such scenario, of course!

Thank you very much and have a nice evening

Please try again with the veteran train and let me know how it goes. If you get the same problem again, I'll have to make some tweaks in the scenario editor. The problem is that "on paper" it should work perfectly, so it's hard to know why it stops working - it might be that the AI/dispatcher behaviour is a bit unpredictable unfortunately.

I had prepared a scenario with IORE from Kiruna to Narvik (actually split in two parts so you drive to Abisko in the first part), but I gave up because of the "jumping train" problem. If there is no solution to that I might make the scenario with a shorter train (~30 cars instead of 68).

In the meantime I could make something with the Dm3 loco, maybe something set in the 70s/80s like this? Or early 2000s like this? Which era would be more interesting? All brown trains or a bit more colour?

It's interesting when you look at the timetables, both the current and old ones, you can see that the loaded trains usually don't stop at all, while trains going the other way have to stop at almost every station. I guess it makes sense that the heaviest trains should avoid stopping as much as possible.
