How are you actually placing the consist? Do you have it saved as a Consist Asset?
What do you mean by "spawning the consist"? Describe the steps you use.
All i did was placing down the class 390s locomotive and rolling stock on to a track, couple them up together and then went into "Train Mode "C"" then going to get consist, clicking on the coupled class 390 i had and forming a consist asset. aka if you look in DLS and installed, go and add category going to consist. It should show you the consist that you had formed
Make sure you can actually place the consist. There can be multiple causes that prevent you from doing so.
1) You are placing the consist where there's not enough room.
This is caused by a short siding, junction set wrong so that the consist can't fit on the tracks, and also because there's another consist in the way.
2) The track is on a different layer than the one where you're trying to place the consist.
3) The track somehow became corrupted.
There's a bug that causes the track to change kind from track to something else. The cause is unknown but appears to be related to the database. When this occurs, you can't place track objects, attach other track to the already placed track, and you can't place any consists.
The fix for this is to open up all your third-party track for editing in Content Manager then submitting it (not reverting) to force the database to update.
You can test for this by creating a test route. We recommend you do this anyway to check textures, experiment with techniques, and to test assets.
Create a simple loop with the track you are using on your route and place your consist.
Does the consist place down fine?
If it doesn't then you, then you have the track issue. If it does, you have something wrong with your route, and that's where you start checking layers, and track length.

Ok so i found something interesting.
so when i dont place the car 3 and 7 (class 390's pantagraph car) and basically the current class 390 in trainz have 9 cars (which is the class 390/0 variant)
when i just simply place the carraiges that dont have the pantagraph car. It can spawn. But when i tried creating a consist asset with purely just the 2 pantagraph car aka car 3 and 7. it then saids train creation failed.
So maybe the pantagraph cars have problems?

Try placing the regular cars first then attach the pantograph car last by leaving enough space between that car and the other coaches then drag the coaches to the pantograph car and couple them on to it. If that doesn't work, then there's something wrong with the pantograph cars.
Did you test this with other consists?Was there a solution ever found I am having the same problem in TS19 it will just not appear when you try to put it on the tracks. Thanks
Is there is something in the way such as catenary, this can also produce that message? Try placing the same consist on another piece of track without any catenary or on another route. It could be that your track is on the wrong layer, which can also produce the same error, or there's something wrong with the track requiring some work in Content Manager to get the track to work.
It sounds like there's something wrong with the consist.This is the only consist I am having trouble with all others working perfect there is no message just a beeping sound when I try to place on tracks Thanks
Is this something I can download from the DLS to try?

If it beeps it indicates that you are trying to place it on the wrong layer or there is an invisible consist that may have derailed. Look in the mini-map to see.
