I've been trying to set up staging tracks in my main yard and small town yards. I want to be able to drop cars for a local switcher to spot at industries in...

Thanks for your response to my question. I guess I was making things more complicated than need be. Your right , using a local switcher and crew instructions...

Chris Do you have a designated switcher at the mill? Or are you trying to assign a train to a route inside the mill complex?? Later Dave Trempealeau WI...
The latter, I have a route from ARV/DEP => steel mill => ARV/DEP. I have tried it the other way for quite a while now, and I am trying to streamline it. Chris...
Chris I just tried to duplicate the situation you described but it always worked - that is, I didnt get the condition you described. I created a train that ran...
Very interesting, Doug. It sounds like your method is the same as mine. The steel mill is in a town called Patterson. There is a town called W. Patterson. The...
Chris You have a later version than I do so perhaps there is something to that. An error message could also be generated if the final destination does not...
Doug, I'd have to say that I get the message for any destination series I try. It doesn't seem to be specific to the type of car or how full the siding is...
... Chris I have version 7.6.4 and it seemed to work perfectly for me. perhaps Eric could give the feature a try and see if 8.1 works correctly. Regards ......
Hi Clay, both industries are in Patterson. BTW, I made a copy of my RailOp folder and plopped 7.7.6 in, and routing seems to work OK. Going back to 8.1 breaks...
Chris I have 8.1 as well. I helped a friend of mine with a situation just like you described. The route went from Gateway to north Flats and back to Gateway....
Dave, That workaround seems to be holding up. Surprisingly, I don't even have to check the extra town as a stop in the train for it to be effective. Now on to...
Dave/All: I've been watching this with great curiosity. I just want to make sure of some things before I try to debug the problem. If the route is A->B->A, it...
Eric, Well, I guess I spoke too soon. I tried to add another destination series, and now I am getting the error again. Also, I tried re-checking the town as a...
Perhaps related to my earlier question, I am seeing an odd behavior using destination lists. I have several destination series set up. One is at the Furnace...
I set a delay of -1 on one of the sidings in a location. I went back to change it and when I try to take out the -1 or change it to another value and hit enter...
Clay, I don't know about changing delays specifically causing the program to close, but from time to time, RailOp does crash. Usually, restarting the program...
Chris Sometimes it is the forest and the trees thing. I helped a friend of mine try to figure out just exactly what you are seeing. Couldn't see anything ...
Hi Dave, I understand what you are saying. I have a list of things I usually check. There are the obvious things like : are there cars on the tracks? Is the...
Well, that worked for a while. Then it quit working again. The cars are still moving when I autobuild, but I wanted to add another destination series, and I'm...
Hi Chris: I've been following your thread with some interest, since there are similar situations on the railroad on which I operate. I can't think of any...
