I finally got this add on after MLT's short dissaperance, and am very pleased with it except for a few possible glitches (or maybe it's just me, which is more likley). Whenever I try and run the empire mine jobs, I am always stopped at a red signal after a yellow light at the righthand siding about 3 or 4 miles after leaving eagle mills. I can't do anything at this point, and it doesn't appear that I am waiting for anything. I am wondering if this could also be related to my other issue with how many cars my train is pulling. On the work order, I am supposed to drop off 50 cars, numbers 0-0 through 0-49, but there is another car listed on my uncoupling list as 0-50, and when I uncupple it, only the red warning device is left behind, hovering where I leave it. Is this an actual car on the list, am I supposed to uncouple it, and why am I always being stopped on my way to the empire mine?

MLT has a car known as FRED (in the consist editor), which is what you are leaving behind. It should not be what is causing the problem.

Go to their site and get the patch for the route. It should clear up the problems.
