Running OR Vx2007 on the Scenic Sub and at milepost 1744 ran through the bridge supports. I have never noticed it before, a known route bug, perhaps. There are three of them. No damage, however, I was thrown off the train.

All bridges of that type of structure on Scenic have that problem, the pillars just jump up around year head when you pass over them.
Likely to be something odd in the shape-file.

It's a hierarchy problem, most likely. I've had girder bridges glitch out in a similar way before, except the bulk of the span (everything except MAIN) spawns with its 0,0,0 "welded" to the camera.

Oh Boy! New Stuff to learn. Hierarchy problems in routes, welding stuff to cameras ... applied that to a massive 8x10 view camera years ago, don't suppose you are referring to the same thing? :sign_thanks: When I take some time out from CabViews ( could Kuju or whoever have made that Cab Editor screen any smaller! - it's probably related to the max size of the cabview in MSTS?) I'll start rummaging around in the route information I've come across. Thank you.
