Trains unexpectedly stop unloading

After starting a game, my trains reach a station but do not unload. They are carrying passengers and mail which is demanded there. They unloaded before, but now won't. Tried double tracking, tried looping, tried disbanding trains and recreating them, they run to the affected station and stop and don't unload.

I've tried for 14 hours now, and can't find a solution anywhere. Thought I'd finally bother some of the experts. Thanks ahead of time!

Which map is this on? Does it occur on all maps? Do you have any custom maps installed? Could you show us a screenshot of the problem?

Apparently this bug has happened to a few people. The official bug fix:

Hold the Alt key down and press tab (the key above Caps lock on a standard keyboard layout).

This will minimise the game and show the windows desktop. Click on the Sid Meier's Railroads! button on the taskbar to enter the game again. This should start the train moving once again and prevent it from delaying its journeys any further.


Hope this works :)
