How do I get the Turntable to work? - or is it static?

Do you have a locomotive pulled up to it? They usually won't turn unless there is something there or on them. I'm sure that one is not supposed to be static.

Press G and SHIFT G just like operating a switch/turn out.

Or you can click on the turn table, just like you can click a switch.

Yes, I have a Loco right up against it, and I do get the "Switch Icon" when I put my mouse at either end, but it doesn't move even with the "G" or "Shift G" key.

Just to be clear: you are driving an engine on a track leading to a turntable, the tt's bridge is not aligned with your track, and no part of your engine overhangs the turntable, correct? In that case, pressing <g> or <shift> + <g> should move the bridge into alignment.

What type of scenario? (free-roam or standard)

Providing a screen-shot may help.

Thanks Guys. I did finally get it to work. I don't know if this helped or not, but I checked a box in the upper corner of the properties box?? Its a little trickier than others I have used. Again thanks for the help.
