NP Boxcars

Hope someone can figure this out.

There are two builtin boxcars;

NP grn 40ft xm,<kuid2:78865:15016:1>
NP tuscan 40ft Boxcar,<kuid2:78865:15002:1>

They are from Diecastgalore. In surveyor I aded two consists that had six of these cars along with other cars. In one the NP cars were empty and the other NP were full with general goods, all other cars were empty.

The first consist engine was pulling 464Tons, the second 2615Tons.
Make me think the load in each car is about 375Tons. Isn't that high for a 40' boxcar?

Here is a portion of the config file

queues
{
prod0
{
size 56635
initial-count 0
product-kuid <kuid:-3:10013>

allowed-categories
{
0 <kuid:-3:10013>
}
}

mass 12500

string-table
{
maxweight "112500" <---- Is this a typo?
}

I know these are old but they came up on a session I downloaded and the engine can not move them. If I uncouple before this car he goes on his way.

Is there anyway to get these to work correctly?


Thanks Rob
 
product-kuid <kuid:-3:10013> is general goods and is of type container (kuid:-310042) which the TRS2006CCG shows it has a mass of 1400 kg per unit or 3080 lbs. The queues section in these cars allows 56635 units, a totally unreasonable number. Adjust the amount you are loading per car as required for reasonable weights.

Thanks for the reply.
The session decides if any boxcar is loaded or not. Guess I'm out of luck and will have to give up on the session. If they weren't builtin they could be obsoleted. I'm going to try to swap out these boxes with others, but I'm not sure that will work.
