Jim, As you know, I have a lot of tank cars for my on-line customers; I have carefully, I think, attempted to match their home road routing, commodity, BOLs...
Jim, Have you had a chance to study this? I know you have been busy! Thanks. Jim Brewer Glenwood MD [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
Hi Jim and All, I'm in the process of making changes to the Nashville data and have been running "computer only" sessions to see how the changes work. One...
Andy, I have all of the same selections as you. Before a session starts, I go to Transportation/Re-block trains between sessions/re-block a train in staging....
Hi Jim, I just looked at that manual option. With all the trains I have in staging, this will take quite awhile. I thought that the program would do this...
Hi Jim M, I've been playing around with the re-blocking option that Jim B referenced. I select the train from the drop-down window and then can make the...
Andy, Yes, my trains are out of block order; however, I just view this a part of setup for a session. Also, I can group cars in a train that I know are...
Hi Jim, You are right, I checked my whole lineup and it worked pretty well and quickly. The only thing that I wish was different was in the last message...

Hi All, Well I've had two unit trains for quite awhile now and have changed their terminal at one end of the run. It is now the "on-layout" power company...
Joe, Thanks for the pointer to the message; hope you had, and having, a good trip. In reading Jim's message, it appears most of the data changes he...
Andy, What is the new routing for these trains from staging to the power plant? Is there an 02y at the power plant? I don't have any unit trains, so I'm...
Hi Jim, I appreciate the help! Yes, the unit trains go between NOS-09s (Cincinnati staging track) and SNI03y (South Nashville Industrial). The customer is...
Well I ran a session and then ran the "end of session" report. I again tried the Unit train blocking again and this time the trains showed up in the...
Andy, I would make sure the 02y track is long enough to handle the number of cars you want; you might consider making it longer (in the computer); I would also...
so I'm not certain if the cure is the same. Jim, ? I don't know either whether Jim's changes will clear my lots of set out and few pickup problem or not. I...
... Jim, First, at the waybill datafield (on the car edit window), do waybills show up on the righthand pane as possible waybills? Jim Jim Moir ProTrak Baden...
Hi JIm, When you changed these passener wb's recently, did you shorten the field for the car type?? I had changed the AAR specific car types to differentiate...
... Nope. The car-kind datafield is 6 characters wide, and that has never changed. The "waybill" definition itself has had one change since 1999, and that...
Howdy folks, Over the last couple of months, we've been putting the ideas and fixes learned at ProTrak Weekend (Andy's) to use at the Texas Western. More cars...
... Not good. Sounds like one of the "blocking" routines is going into an infinite loop. I'll have a look. I tried the link but got a "webpage not available"...
Mike, Got data out of groups files. I see the same "seizing up". Jim ... From: ProTrak@yahoogroups.com [mailto:ProTrak@yahoogroups.com]On Behalf Of Jim Moir ...
... Mike, Found the bug; the program was going through an error routine an infinite number of times. Fixed the underlying error in the code (finding each of ...
Howdy, Thanks Jim! We really appreciate the super quick response. BTW, what could we have done in our setup to caused the train to enter the checking loop? ...
Howdy folks, We finally completed building another "pipe train" for the Texas Western. We now have two and they depart from Farmington staging and Alamosa at...
Mike, I just posted an experimental Update for you. Please use with care and back-up all your data 20-times over - first. There are a lot of changes and...
