Hi Jim,

Every time we go into Operations, the window pops up that asks us if we want to "Initialize all trains in staging."  After we do this the first time we enter staging for a new session, does it hurt or make any changes if we answer "yes" each time we enter operations after that? 

Thanks, Andy

Andy,

It does not hurt to re-run the new "initialize cars in staging".  But I find it annoying to see that window again-and-again (which appears until the first train moves).   I was thinking yesterday, running into that window a lot of times, that I should add a note to it that remembers that it has been run before (I don't from  one day to a later day).   Also it is useful to re-run the "initialize cars in staging" if the trains have add car added (by fiddling).

Also, yesterday I was working on that routine, as it did not correctly deal with cars going >to< staging, or regions.  It does now (next Update).
