Dan,

I built my trains and the Build Reports are approximately 36 pages long. ?Would you prefer me to send them to you separately, I can¡¯t recall if the groups allows attachments of that size. ?The trains show a little more activity, but they are still carrying along several cars that go from staging to staging. ?

Also my operation sessions were set up by a friend who has the following scenario:
Print Morinng EB
Print Morning WB
Terminate EB
Terminate WB
Print yard switcher, Terminate
Print Afternoon EB
Print Afternoon WB

?Dan,

I found the screen that you have shown in your email and sure enough I have "allow cars to travel from origin to terminal." ?I will deselect it.

But I have a question before I run the report. ?Should I reduce some of the cars from the trains before running the new train build? ?If there are a dozen or so cars on the trains, how will it manage the trains if there aren¡¯ enough spaces/locations on the layout to handle them? ?I¡¯m not to proud to admit that I have too many cars on the layout.

Also when you say to attach the build report is it a typical background report and not the switchlest? ?If so where do I go to locate and export a detailed build report?

Hi Tom,
?
If you could attach the build report for one of your trains in very detailed mode, we could review it and determine why the program isn't switching the number of cars you want.

Note that there's an option for each train to disallow through cars. For fun, try deselecting "Allow cars to travel from origin to terminal", and let us know what happens. I'd still like to see a build report to understand how you got things configured.
