Hi, I would assume this means that the well known and used glitch , where people were attaching trains to both ends of the carriages, has been fixed.

I have all my freight cars on one farm... 9 are together with an engine at each end. And 3 are together with an engine at each end.

Just unloaded all 4... and dispatched all 4.

Maybe I should never detach any, or they may not double dip again??

Thank you Tony, I always thought it looked dumb anyhow having engines on either ends. I have two engines on seperate farms with only one engine per train set, so I have nothing to worry about. Thank very much for explaining Happy Farming

FYI Real trains often run with several engines on the front of the train and at the back as well. It is not unusual to see a train with 5 engines on the front and 2 or 3 at the end I have seen this a lot and thought it was allowed because it is normal with real trains. I don't remember when I last saw a train with only one engine!
