I need help changing the trains without the randomiser (it sometimes causes errors).

I use Excel to change the train and I save it as a CSV file.

When I try and load the file it comes up with a load of errors. I've looked into this and it is due to most of the lines having " at the start and end of the lines. I have done this before with succsess but can't remember how. Please help

Open the file in a text editor such as Notepad or vi and edit it with that.

All files, and add the extension .csv to the filename

I was only 3 seconds down at riverside, with normal driving techniques.

Was this the 153 vice 158?

If so i manage to get there early :shock:

Then it went downhill on the high speed section :lol:

It was only the 153, but on the 09:27 Maybank-Hammerwhich. I was 16 seconds late at Witmister but as I was going slower the signals were clearing before i got to then so i was able to keep at linespeed, rather than slowing down to 40mph

Never did the high speed section, ran out of time thanks to my little sister
