Morning,

For my new Hills Line layout, I have one customer that loads empty cars on the layout proper. The rest receive empty cars and unload them. The cars are properly routing to the one customer, but not showing as loaded. I believe I’ve setup the layout file correct. Is there some additional setting for getting on-layout industries to load properly?

Best,
James McNab

Hi, James,

Are you getting any errors in the Problems window? It could be that the car is getting loaded, but SwitchList can't find a route to the destination.

I could also imagine the cars made it to an industry that used to be a source for a reasonable cargo, but changes to cargos meant the industry was no longer a source. If there's no route for that class of car from the current location to a current source, then the car could appear stuck.

Can you send me a copy of your layout file, and I'll check it out.

Robert
