Before I gave up, what you have said is similar to what I was thinking, but once the final destination is set in Scenario Editor I couldn't see how to put any instructions after that. I tried, but SE would not allow me to do such an instruction; it always put the line above final destination, and not after, which is where I wanted it to be.

The final destination instruction has to be the FINAL instruction on the list.

Hi,

The last I heard or remember was that rolling stock had to be in place at the start of the scenario for it to be usable in instructions. So if you have rolling stock attached, move it and then want to run around it an connect to the back, I don't think you will be able to do that with the dispatcher commands.

I could be wrong but that is how I remember it.

Well, I think that I have figured out the instructions, but the one thing holding me up now is that DTG in their wisdom? did not place crossover points at the terminus end. I drove into the station, uncoupled and drove forward to the desired destination at the station, but when I go forwards to drive past the stock the loco does not cross over.

Slowly getting there!
