CarTypeWanted question, One specific car listed in TDB, several types show up in activities Options

[ddedicos]

Hi guys,
I recently updated my A&O sub template and tried to make a simple activity with the "Yard" template in Urbanette. I used North 1 and North 2 as source tracks and had Tyson 1 and Tyson 2 as destination tracks. In the TDB, Tyson 1 and 2 have HP and HPMT as the only cars "Wanted" and "Shipped". When I generate the activity, there are gondolas,tanks, and bulkhead flats that are to be spotted on the Tyson tracks! I am using version 4.2.0.12 My question is, how would I have the proper cars available in my source tracks that would match the cars needed in the destination tracks. I understand that North 1 and 2 have "Any" as the type of car that may be assigned to them. Hope this question makes sense?!? Thanx!!

Well, after some adjustments to my afore mentioned activity, I was able to achieve what I was looking for. I changed the CARWANTED and CARSHIPPED columns for track "North 2" to accept only HP and HPMT cars, and used only the Source tracks option and the Work tracks windows in modifying the act., NO destination tracks!! Not sure if this is the proper procedure for this type of situation, but for now, it works. Any other comments are appreciated! Thanx again......Doug
