Since I posted the original question about single car type trains, I have been doing some experimenting. I found if you designate one track in the destination region the same track type as the source track, you can build, in this case, a coal train of any length. Obviously you must be able to afford designating one track to just one car type. In my case, the designation yard had plenty of 40 car and more tracks so I was able to designate one to coal loaded only.

Steve / Norman,
I checked the capacity of the sidings and the SWLTDB and all the sidings are under capacity as to the number of cars and the marker to marker length of the siding is also ok. Remember this is an older "legacy" route and I have found little bugs in the past. I'm half way in the process of testing the pick up and set outs of all the sidings for the new / updated template after I finish the task I will load the current version of AG and test the problem areas . I don't like to update programs mid stream on making a template it keeps the flow of doing the work inline. Have a good weekend, Peter -------------------- Peter
