The one on 17 has a cattle car, and I truly hope its not duplicating all twenty cars and giving me double animals! Why is it showing each locomotive's cars together when I open either train? They are on different farms. I don't recall them doing that before.

Hi Riap,
I just checked and both of those trains are dispatched with 10 cars each. If you are looking at the Freight Cars tab it will show all of the cars, but the ones not on the train will be faded out. That doesn't appear to be working right in the train manager. I will pass this on to the developers.

You need to look instead at the Train Status tab and that will show you the cars on the train.
I will clear your train data for the dispatch problem but they are both showing dispatched. You will need to close your farms and restart them.

Thank you, Taz.
It did look a bit odd. Thank you for checking for me. I'll double check each train.

My game is doing strange things. I sent out train boosts this morning at 1 AM and should be able to send more boost to the same people again. Under my game window several times today when I have loaded the game again it's showing names of players I have never sent a train boost to as boosting a train that I never sent to them to begin with. I guess throwing off the time it is allowing me to send to the ones I have always sent my trains to. I need to know how to fix this

Hi Kathyyclark,
I moved your post to the thread about the freight trains.

There isn't any way that someone can boost your trains if you didn't send them a boost request. The only possibilty is you sent to them accidently at 1 AM or you have given your login to someone and they sent them out as you. Please note that the name you see in the activity log is their first name and not their avatar name that you would see in the list for sending boosts to.

There isn't any way for you to fix this as there is nothing to fix as you can't change the activity log or reverse the boosts.

Hi Joyfull

I moved your post to the thread about Trains.

I just checked your trains and there are problems with some of them.

Your trains on farms 14, 16 and 20 are ok.

The train on your farm 3: it only has 9 farm cash cars attached. The first car attached to the locomotive is for coins.

The train on your farm 4: It shows 8 farm cash cars correctly attached. The last 2 long cars, Long Flowers car and Long Refrigerated car are not attached to the locomotive.
Also, you have 2 Long Refrigerated cars on that train so only one counts.

The train on your farm 12: It only has 1 farm cash car correctly attached. The other one, Long Container car, is not attached to the locomotive.

You need to wait for those trains to come back home, unload them and then fix the cars on them.

Please, before dispatching the trains again do the following to check if all long cars are correctly attached to each one:

Click on the Locomotive and select 'Show Train Details'. The Long Freight Cars that are correctly attached to your Locomotive will be highlighted in white. The ones that you don't own or that are not correctly attached will be dimmed out.

I know I asked before and thought I had written it down. I have 2 trains on Farm 14 (enhanced and supreme) and 1 on Farm 22 (standard). I want to change the supreme to ultimate. Then I get lost. Once I change those engines, can I use the supreme on the train with the enhanced engine and then move the enhanced to the standard? I think I'm saying it right. This time I will write it down. Thank you!!

Hi lynnetimperiro

Yes, you can do that.

Just remember 2 things.

Every train has to be back home and you have to unload it before moving/changing the locomotives. You need to send the locomotive to your storage IF you want to move it to another farm.

And before dispatching a train and to be sure all long cars are correctly attached, click on the Locomotive and select 'Show Train Details'. The Long Freight Cars that are correctly attached to your Locomotive will be highlighted in white. The ones that you don't own or that are not correctly attached will be dimmed out.

Hi Lynnetimpeiro,
One other note is you can not have 2 of the same engine on the same farm. So you can not 2 supreme engines on the same farm.
