My PC F7's came with a tendency to derail at one certain spot on the NEC.

At MP 55.3 no matter which track it was on, the lead units would derail,
sometimes taking the whole train with them, at any speed.

I had to replace the engine physics file with one from a GP9 which I reworked
and that fixed the problem. Held my activity development up for over a week
and drove me crazy.

Yeah F7's on the NEC, it's snowing and my train's G inhaled an overdose :)

I picked up a lot of my equipment from http://www.train-sim.com/ and repainted
a lot stuff into PC.

Even made PC piggyback trailers out of an IC set!
