        There was a previous bug where if your trailing units were either AI or Trail, they never came out of dynamics and were creating a tug of war with your fully equipped player engines.

        As a test, either replace your trailing units in this affected consist to eliminate Trail and AI (using only full-equipped player driveable units) and see if the problem still exists, or create a test installation of the latest X version and see if the problem recurs with the consist as it is now.

        The last stable release is a year old now. Alot has changed since it was published. Before you bring a laundry list of issues here, make sure you tried the latest X version first. A year old 'stable release' doesn't mean much anymore. Disk space is cheap, It costs nothing to have a parallel X release copy for testing purposes.

            To the OR Team's credit, most of the "unstable" experimental releases have, in fact, been pretty stable. When a problem is discovered in an experimental release, it is usually corrected promptly. I haven't ever used the stable release--I like to take advantage of the all the enhancements, and there have been many.

              I appreciate the technical information about the functionality of AI locomotives for the understanding of OR and the issues experimented.
              Since this is a "open questions&answers" forum I will keep bringing my laundry to resolve the issues aplying the recommendations provided and appreciating the kindly support!.

              Thanks!!!
