I probably would be more interested in whether the physics were correct or not if I could just find some routes and activities that would work on my system. I do not understand why I seem to have so much more trouble than everybody else.
I tried <Ctl><M> and it did release the emergency brake, but then the display in the <f4> driving aid changed to red and I got the message, "you are off the original track." I messed around trying different things and the keyboard stopped responding. I'm just going to give up on this particular route. I want it because it has Grand Trunk Western rolling stock and scenery and GTW ran a commuter train from, I think, Flint and Pontiac which stopped in Royal Oak, where I lived. I'm just going to move the route and rolling stock over to where I have other routes waiting to be installed on MSTS and delete this one.
Do you know of any route which works reliably in OR? I found none of the activities I have in NEC 4.0 will even start moving. The steam engines in Skipton to Carlisle and Thames Trent stop after ten or fifteen minutes for no apparent reason (the gauge doesn't show that they're out of steam, at least). Frankly, although many people seem to love it, my experience with OR has not been fun, and that's the whole point, isn't it?
