Tried again tonight, worked fine.
Good run that Chris, enjoyed it. Great work.
Excellent – so pleased it worked! Thanks 🙂
I was enjoying this run until I came across 1V50 – appeared to stop dead then move incredibly sluggish, blocking the line near Ambergate. Probably some gemlin in my PC… will reinstall and give it another whirl.
That’s really strange. I’ve just re-tested the whole thing and didn’t encounter any problems. 1V50 is supposed to go into a portal on the far side of Derby. Could just be one of those random TS bugs that never repeats itself! Thanks for mentioning it! 🙂
