After using trainz for a month or 2 , I have found that derailments happen too easily. I shall explain my latest prediciment. 2 Uk based class 37's (for the benefit of anyone outside the UK) are to couple to a rake of coaches on the Ayr to Stranraer route. A shunter is outside the station after completing the shunt (Location is Stranraer Harbour station). The 2 37's are in the centre roads , points set to effectively couple up to the shunter to then join the respective trains (after dividing the loco's to go to the respective trains). I move the 37's forward (making sure the points are set correctly) and after going a few mph over the limit (station speed around 15mph) the loco's derail. Its annoying that a scenario that happened before in real life causes the trains to derail. I mean , realistically , would a loco slide 40 foot across the rails to around a 45 degree angle after derailing? Trainz is an excellent simulator of train operation but some of the derailments in my honest opinion are really far fetched. In real life this wouldn't happen. In closing , I have the derailment setting to non existent (or nearest).
Anyone with an explanation would be greatfully recieved.
