You don't say which version your using, try Cn holly subdivision and get dap's pontiac yards session.
Ai trains come in and drop cars off/pick up to a timetable. You have to get consists ready in time or they go without them.
Try getting all cars off route to the correct portals. That should keep you going for a bit.

Also philskene has done quite a few sessions which should suit, can't remember what they're called though.

At last, a fellow switching fan.

For TS12 look for:

• DowntownTractionCo TS12
• IntenCity TS12
• KrashnburneRRCo TS12
• HarborMaster TS12

All of the routes have sessions.

If I could only get the "search" function of these forums to work a bit better I'd give links to my posts. OK - I've kind of worked it out:

The mother of them all, though, is IndustRail. The latest version is for TS2010, but it will run in TS12, though with some missing dependencies.
