Channel Tunnel Trains

Ho do I get the train to move off once I've parked my truck on the train at Calais, then select the departure and press 'embark'. Nothing seems to happen after that. Am I missing something?

Thanks

it happens kinda instantly

Yeah, there's no animation or anything of the train actually moving. The screen fades in and out and you magically appear at your destination!

Now if only it counted as a bit of resting time like it does while taking the ferry...

Yeah, but I think it only takes about 30 mins for the train to cross... barely enough time to get comfy in the sleeper lol!

Pretty sure you get 30 minutes...

Go back and forth about 20 times and you're fully rested :)

Hiya Chaps

Manythanks for the information. I found out the answer by accident when I moved the truck off the train to reposition it as I thought I'd missed something when I approached the train. I then discovered the road signs were English ones and so guessed that I was already across.

Thanks again for taking the time to answer my query though. It's much appreciated.

You dont need to position full truck to the train. Just turn to the train and stop when your cabin hits the green square.
