Inoperable/Corrupt Turnouts in Session

Anyone know what can cause turnouts to become inoperable in a session. When I go back to Edit the "parent" session, the turnouts appear fine, but when I try to resume the saved operating session via Resume Session the turnout arrows are both red (instead of red/green) and turnout is inoperable. Also, appears that the track features (turnout frogs, bumpers) are turned 90 degrees? Any thoughts?

Not too sure about this but I have in the past seen this.
Why not delete the point motor to see if there are in actual fact two inserted. I had a case yesterday but they were not on top of each other.
By bumpers to do mean track end stops, they instal I believe in the direction that the track was laid, Turn them with the turn feature.
Maybe be this is also the problem with the frogs, I do not use them.

This is simply because saved sessions do not update themselves if you have edited the layout after saving an operating session. A saved session will always show the state of the layout as it existed when you first started the driving session. To show the updated layout you must start a brand new driving session.
 
OK thanks. I think the problem may have been that the layout I downloaded from Content Manager (Central City Industrial) had (for some reason) all the track & buildings in the Session Layer rather than Route Layer. When I merged layers to the Route Layer and saved it as a new Route, I now seem to be able to enter a Drive Session, save the Drive Session, and get back in and resume drive session ok.

Thanks all for your help.
