The second time every day, I can't send boosts to them. It operates on at least a 12 to 15 hour turnaround time for second requests to the same user. And many times the first boost requests never arrived, so they never get the opportunity to work my trains, so I can only think that it's happening with other farmers also. I hope I'm making sense.

Hi Kathleenkelly,
As I said this requires data transfer between Facebook and Farm Town. There isn't anything that can be done by Farm Town to make sure the data is sent. Have you checked to see if they show up in the My Requests as they do show in both?


According to what information we have you can send an additional boost to an individual 8 hours after you sent one previously to that person. We will test this to make sure.

Okay, thank you. It must be the data transfer issue, as they have checked both areas for trains, thank you.

Thanks! I have found out how to use it again.

I keep getting "non-friend" requests for boosts. I try to go find them and block them, but usually they've already changed their picture. Is there anything in the works to fix this? When you get a non-friend request it gives a message that you can't boost the train, you have to get out of the train manager and got back in to get the number (in the red circle) to go away.

Hi NJones,
When you get those it is usually because a neighbor of yours is working more than one account and the request comes through with the wrong name information. This happens do to a change Facebook made so when they use the switch user in Facebook to change between accounts the information does not get updated correctly.
If you leave the ones listed as a non-friend in the train manager alone and don't click on them, then go to the My Requests it will be listed with the correct name and you can do the boost. You will also be able to figure out who is doing this and can inform them that they need to use a different browser for each account so this doesn't happen.

I am redoing my farm (#18) and moved my existing train cars into my storage. I went to move my enhanced freight train to my farm and it would not go. I went to refresh and went back into my storage and I cannot find my enhanced freight train. It appears my cars are there, but not the enhanced freight train. Can you help me please? Thank you.

Hi Betty Underdahl,

No one has broken into your farms. When you get those it is usually because a friend of yours is has access to more than one account and the request comes through with the wrong name information and shows up as non-friend as you are not friends with the other account.

This happened due Facebook changes and can happen if they used Facebooks switch user or the same browser for both accounts and did not close Facebook and the game or the browser before logging into the other account so the information does not get updated correctly.

If you boost them from the Train Manager you will likely see the expired message and then have to close the train manager and reopen it for those to clear.

If you want to boost them as long as they are not already boosted, you can boost all the other train boosts you have first via the Train Manager then go to My Requests and see if you see 4 train boosts there from the same person that have not cleared yet. When you find them those will have the correct friends picture so you know which friend it was and can let them know what has happened. You will be able to boost or clear the train boosts from My Requests and see the correct message.

Getting the same message in boosting trains as in sending gifts.
