Thanks. Really looking to try these out.
I don't know what's going wrong with T:ANE at present. I was testing some NSWGT Sydney trams of the 1950s, together with the trolley poles that couple with each unit. I was looking to ensure that I had correct catenary height with some new models which I'm working on.
In Surveyor mode the trolley poles attach correctly,
but when I open Driver the trolley poles disappear.
Also in Driver mode, I can then add a Tram to the track, but it does not allow me to add the trolley pole. These have always worked on other routes I've made in the past, but not now!!
There are 3 trolley poles available and none can be added to a track. Any ideas?

<kuid:73150:101389> TS12 NSWGT Sydney Tram Trolley pole - Sydney US09 no arc

Cheers,

PS: I also duplicated the 'Test' in TRS19 and it all works fine in that program. NOT in T:ANE !

Thanks Tom,
It doesn't appear to be anything that I downloaded. I have T:ANE Build #105766 running on both :C and :E drives of my computer and since I did a Database Rebuild last Sunday, this problem has occurred. As a matter of fact, I included a range of different electric trains Qld, Vic, NSW and their built-in catenaries don't even raise. The 'raise/lower' button in Driver does not show as active either.
If I use TRS19 and create the same Test Layout, everything works fine.
It appears that something is just not right in the T:ANE program.
I'll do another Database Rebuild and if it does not rectify the problem, then I'll swing over to TRS19.
Cheers,
Roy
Tom, I did try that as well with no luck.
It appears that since I last updated T:ANE which was about 2 weeks ago, this began to happen. So whatever dependencies operate the Driver Controls may have malfunctioned somewhat.
To bypass the manual raising of the panto, I'll setup some driver commands on a test route which include raising and lowering the panto to see if that fixes the problem.
Cheers, Roy
PS: Well, that didn't work either. A clean layout with track, track-markers, a tram, attached panto, and driver commands.
When I opened Driver mode the driver jumped in but the panto had disappeared again.
PPS: Now this pinpointed the problem a little more. I pulled the tram off and replaced it with a 1926 Red Rattler with the panto built-in.
Then, lo and behold, using identical driver commands as set for the tram, the panto raised, horn blew and off it went. Arriving at the last track-marker. it halted and the panto lowered following the command.
I don't know what to do with the trams now. Cheers, Roy
WHOOPS ! Someone has waved their magic wand, and another database rebuild,... now,... all tram catenary's raise and lower at the click of a button.
What was that all about, ... I don't know, but now I can get back to what I was trying to achieve. Cheers guys, Roy

G'day Aaron,
I would if I could mate. I just don't have the skills or the time to handle any extra jobs like that. You must realize that I can only use Sketchup to make models and that unfortunately, blows the polys out of the water. And that wouldn't help your situation.
I'm really pushing it to get my 1950s route finished before I drop off the planet.
Letting you know, I'm very impressed with the work you and Graeme have put into the 'Illawarra' layout - Fine work mate!
Cheers, Roy

Too much sharpening for my liking.
Will be interesting to see the 'new' feature list on the 1st of December.
