Good to see that the GP40-2 is getting a patch, but this only fixes a few of the bugs.

[khakimov.nodar]

On the GP-40-2 buffer rear lights black. And when switch the button to "Reverse lever" in position "Back" buffer lights black do not burn. But at the entrance to the locomotive in reverse for docking in splotch reflects the lights on the second locomotive.

[khakimov.nodar]

Russian language translated perfectly.

[khakimov.nodar]

In the task "PowerLine," the third locomotive which no fuel is actually worth dressed 2900 gallons. And by the way I have it wound up and joining in splotch he worked as a worker to produce thrust and braking, which facilitates the passage of the job. And traction and the brakes worked fine. You just have to lift the switch "Fuel pump".

[khakimov.nodar]

When you open the doors engine compartment of the locomotive SD-40-2 manifested a bug with textures in the livery of YN-2.

[khakimov.nodar]

In the task "PowerLine" locomotive "AC4400CW" in the livery YN-2 which is in the middle of the Park, "Cumberland", half moved into building maintenance. It looks very funny!

[khakimov.nodar]

Another question, when will be removed the problems of light in Cumberland Park?

[khakimov.nodar]

Job "PowerLine" has completed successfully. But the achievement was not given.

[khakimov.nodar]

The quest "Return to Cumberland," missing GP-38-2. Please return it.

[khakimov.nodar]

And will there be another livery for the GP-40-2?

Training GP-40-2 achievements do not give

Jay, thank you for the patch, but I kinda have to ask, what's the progress on traction motor fixes that are so highly anticipated?

I noticed that there's some physics tweaks in the game already, as I now actually have to use Notch 8 to climb up the Sand Patch Grade in some cases (2x AC4400CW with an autorack train, notch 8 tops at 23 mph at 1.5% grade). That isn't included in any patch notes, but it's clear that some tweaks were done, so I assume there's some progress on physics already. Am I correct?

[khakimov.nodar]

Improved optimization in the "Cumberland".

[nickhawk]

Still no hearable voice in the scenarios, and the brakes dont work on the power line scenario if you couple more locos together because of wrong setup of the brakes.

[khakimov.nodar]

In train mode when you start the game on foot is no GP-38-2 return it please.
