I was running the Mactier 114 - Monday activity.
Coming in to a siding slowly, the switch ahead was laying for the other road, the switch behind was laying for my road.

The train snapped to the other track, and I noticed that the switch behind had changed.
May have been a coincidence, but I suspect that the switch behind hijacked my train.

The log file is no help at all.

cheers

Do the coupler sections in your consist include "CouplingHasRigidConnection ( 1 )"? Could be that.

This sounds like an old, old problem manifesting itself. If the AI dispatcher sets a path thru the siding's entry switch, it may also reset your exit switch. When you pass over the exit switch, the train would also snap over to the other track:

I'd reported it ages ago, when multiplayer first came out, but haven't tested it again myself.
