Description
Midtown Direct Train 6616 is a morning express operating from Dover to Penn Station New York. In this scenario, based on the June 2019 NJ Transit Employee Timetable, you'll board a consist of eight MultiLevel cars with an ALP-46 motor in Dover Yard, perform a reverse move to Dover West as Train X609, then begin your run over the Morristown Line, making local stops as far as Summit, then calling only at Millburn before expressing all the way to Penn Station. Along the way you'll see over 25 other train movements. Note that you will have some "downtime" at the beginning of the scenario awaiting departure from Dover; I wanted to include the reverse move and Train 1002's passing, so grab a cup of coffee while you wait! :-)

Note that because the DTG route is missing the home signal for eastbound trains through Swift Interlocking (where Midtown Direct trains join the Northeast Corridor), this scenario uses a simple "Stop at" instruction when you reach Swift, as the game would otherwise have you occupy the same signal block as the Trenton Express ahead of you.

***Because of the high volume of AI traffic in this scenario, a minimum of 16GB RAM, and running Train Simulator in 64-bit, is highly recommended!***

That is truly weird. 1002 has three instructions, to stop at Dover 1, Denville 3, and then exit at Portal - Mountain Lakes. All are locations native to the default route, and my editor shows no conflicts or concerns with its route. Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling the scenario?

I get a destination Danville not found and for some reason 1002 doesn't move.

1002 is the first AI train you should encounter, heading east into Dover on Track 1 as you head west to Orchard Street on Track 2. It should stop at Dover and depart around 6:52, and once it's clear of the signal at the east end of Dover station, you should get the signal indication to move east from the Orchard Street signal. I just double-checked and Train 1002's consist is entirely stock equipment from the GP40PH-2 pack. When you get the failed to load box, does it specify particular missing assets? Do you usually have that box pop up with my scenarios, or is it new with this one?

I've got some issue with the loading as 1002 is still up beyond the signal and doesn't move.I get the failed to load box and by using F2 it will run.

Will try again is 1002 the one further up the track??

crlynch, I'm sorry to hear that! In all my testing that is not an issue I've ever encountered. Are you sure you've pulled the entire train onto the "Orchard Street" track marker, so the trailing cab car is clear of the signal? For me, the switches realign as soon as Train 1002 clears them, even before the signal changes when 1002 leaves Dover.
