Editing Trains

Hello all!
I have a question regarding Trainz 22. I have over 1,000 hours on Trainz 19. But Im noticing since switching over to 22 after I found out some newer routes would only work on 22 im finding it to have some issues or things changed im not liking compared to 19. But then again maybe there is something im missing and thats what I come to find out!?
So the question today is! Is there a way to still edit Trains and add or take away from consists or create new one all within the driver session? Cause im not seeing the option anymore from the drop downs all I see options for is to go back into Surveyor mode! Which if thats the only way to do it thats fine I dont mind that. But im finding that if I go into surveyor mode on a Save file from a driver session and mess with it and then load back into driver it will no longer save........ so i just lost all of that progress from that loaded save after messing with it from surveyor mode and then im back to square on like I never even loaded the save and played. I have tried this with multiple different routes and same thing. When I go to quit if I have indeed opened surveyor mode on a save file at the end when I go to quit the session I still get the pop up asking if I want to save or just quit without and I tell it I want to save. It then pops up the save box as normal. And then takes me to the loading screen to send me back to the main menus. But then when I get back to that routes Session screen no new save file is present just the previous files I had and the one I loaded from of course but its back to where I was before doing anything. So is this just how Trainz 22 is and theres nothing I can do about it? Any help is appreciated!
 
Any help is appreciated!

TRS19PE, Trainz Plus and TRS22 all have a UDS Interface (Unified Driver Surveyor) that allows you to switch seamlessly between Driver Mode and Surveyor Mode in both directions, which you seem to be doing. But some important terms and conditions do apply. Those T&Cs do require care when saving your edits.

I use this feature a great deal and I find it best to save my edits in Surveyor before switching back to Driver but I would recommend that you read the following Wiki Page first.

How_to_Use_the_UDS_Interface

Be aware that saving the session will replace your original session with the edited one - which is fine if that is what you want to do. There are some techniques described in the document that can help avoid this.
