Can't Remove A Rogue Turntable on the Tennesee Pass 2 Route

[TheKman]

I got a turn turntable located in the yards in Pueblo, CO on the D&RGW Tennessee Pass 2 route I can't delete without the sim crashing.

It needs to removed cause it's jacked. All that can be highlighted is the track on the turntable part and that's just a rectangular yellow outline. I can't even see the turntable if there's even one there!

What other methods can I try to hack it out? I'm thinking RW Tools might do the trick, but have no idea on how to use it to delete that nasty critter....

Thanks

Found a solution. I can highlight this "ghost" turntable and move it. So I moved out into the boon docks where I won't be doing any work and buried it. It saved so problem solved.

That didn't work after all!!! Fired up the route this morning and that turntable is right back in the same spot in the yards it was originally in. So I'm back to my original issue. I need a way to delete it.

Is it possible to delete this nasty crater by deleting it from the track bin file?

RW Tools deleted it, but delated a whole lot of other stuff as well. Obviously did something wrong using RW Tools.

This is abnormal and you should fix this problem.
I don't suppose this route is packaged in an .ap file, so that can't be the cause.
Maybe you don't have write permissions?

OK...Write permissions. I can delete other items within the route with no issues. I'd think if it was a permissions problem I wouldn't even be able to do that, but maybe I'm not fully understanding write permissions. I'll look into this.

Problem solved. The asset wasn't even in the sim! Some how my Kuju/Railsimulator/Railnetwork/Turntables folder got deleted. Might have happened when Steam updated the sim to TS2020. Restored using my backup files. Turntable now visible and can be deleted if I wish.

Guess What!!! IT'S BACK!!!! $##@R^^^##@@!!!! So far everything I've tried to get rid of it has failed. RW Tools supposedly removed it, said it did, FAIL! I had outrighted deleted and saved. FAIL!! I have unchecked the box for it in the RE. FAIL. Tried moving to a different spot only to have it return next time the sim was fired up. FAIL!
Purged it editing bin files. FAIL!

It's the gift that keeps on giving!!! HO! HO! HO! (Remember the Monty Python song?)

Final solution. Shot the horse. I deleted current version and put the original version of the route back in before editing. Now that turntable is gone, kaput, nah, nah. Yes it is gone. Didn't return after shutting and restarting the sim.

So track will need to relaid, but I'm fine with that The entire route doesn't even come close to alignment within a GE overlay. Back when this route first came out, GE imagery wasn't the greatest and I don't even know if the version of the sim in use when the original route was built had the GE overlay feature.
