KTM Citylink (FGV) Brakes don't release

Post by SFMUNI »

Hello,
While attempting to drive the citylink (FGV) version I found that the train's brakes don't release and that the train won't move. Furthermore, when I cut out the brakes, the train still won't move? Any ideas? Thanks
Oh and, in the section with the number 2 cab, there's a piece of ceiling missing.

I had the same problem, you have to press ctrl + E then it will work

The KTM Citylink was inspired on this vehicle: https://railcolornews.com/2017/08/24/es ... -alicante/
(Delivery to the FGV is underway.... Perhaps even complete by now, I'm not sure).

They are diesel-electric for meter gauge, as the line between Alicante Luceros and Benidorm Intermodal has overhead power supply, but the remaining bit to Denia does not. Yes, that is still the ambition for the line, but costs are a problem. So the new vehicles have got a diesel generator.

In the simulator, changing between overhead wire and dieselengine isn't possible. So in fact, in the simulator this is a diesel vehicle, which just happens to have a pantograph too (which sadly doesn't power the vehicle).
So yes; that makes Ctrl+E needed to start driving.
