Scenario for C40-8: Dash 8 Long Haul Job

I uploaded long scenario (more than 2 hours of driving) for NS Coal District, which covers most of the route

There is one possible problem: stop in Waynesburg sometimes not counted as finished task.
I don't know why, maybe train slightly rolled back after stop (it must stand still for at least 30-40 seconds after full stop)

Yep, Bombardier Dash 8, one of my favorite airplanes in FSX and in real life. I'll swap the DTG dash 8 with eyeins so I can actually give the scenario a try.

Thanks for creating the long-haul scenario. The issue with the end task failure has to do with the coal gon which is indeed unstable and continues to "move" just enough that the stop is marked as failed. It typically does not occur if the gon is empty, but very often occurs if the gon is loaded and more often than not will result in a failed task at the Ark/Gate siding, Waynesburg, or West Brownsville (or anywhere else with even a slight gradient). This is a known problem to DTG which has been left unresolved.

Scenario continuation: back to West Brownsville with loaded gondolas

Unfortunately, sometimes stops failed in scenario due to bug with loaded gondolas.
