Coupler disappears

[SEVENDUSTALEIN]

I will be driving a train and the couplers disappears and then the horn and bell doesn't make any sound and the freight wheels stop makeing sound.

(for some reason when come to a complete stop and uncouple one of the rail-cars the coupler reappears and the sound comes back)

Is this with the same car or with any car used?

[SEVENDUSTALEIN]

Its with any railcar.

Another thing weird thing is that my keyboard will stop working, like the throttle, brakes, bell, horn, lights. But the train will still go down the line.

This happened to me, its one of my youtube videos. If this happens, uncouple any car using the HUD and recouple using HUD. This should solve it.

Good Morning:

The only time that I have had disappearing couplers is one tank car on the Stevens route. As soon as I couple to another car the coupler reappears.

Yes i see if come to a complete stop and uncouple any one of the couplers and then re couple the sound and keyboard controls work again. Unfortunately it comes back some times (what a pain). Do think its the Steven pass rail cars that are causing this issue?

[Nitsujy12345]

I don't think it is the Stevens Pass cars causing this because it happened to me with U36B's and mixed freight, including boxcar models from greatnortherner and also Mainlines, and there were kuju grain hoppers in my consist. The only thing is this very rarely happens to me. Actually, it only happened once.

This happen twice for me, 1 was i had about 70 autoracks (different company names on most of them) with two Sherman Hill UP es44ac. 2nd was i was using two digirails green bnsf GP-38 and hauling eight 3 bay hoppers. This was on my own route.
