Driver Speed Rule issues

I have just gotten the older MPX from Lothar Hake and I understand there will be one for TRS22PE, but for now I'm using the old one. An issue I'm noticing is that the Driver Speed rule doesn't seem to work well at all. For example when passenger trains should be going 79 MPH and freight trains should be going 60 MPH, it just puts up the speed limit as the freight limits even when I'm driving the Empire Builder. Also, the only drivers available are Ian and 2 others I forget when I assigned my driver to be Lothar. Is this Driver Speed rule incompatible with TRS22? Is there a way around it?
 
A thought that just popped up. How does the speed rule determine which is a passenger train and which is freight? Similar rules that I am aware of use the train priority setting. Could that be your problem?
 
Yes, plenty of us here. But as I do not use that rule in my sessions I can make no comments. Have you tried any alternative rules to see if they work, or not work?
You need to edit a table from what I remember and input the consists into it so that the rule can tell which is which. The issue could very well be that this older rule is having issues now with TRS22 and up.
