Pak128.Britain-Ex v0.8.2, in the depot dialog the Jenny Linds have a stated top speed of 95 km/h, but never go faster than 70 km/h, even on improved wrought iron track.

In standard the depot gives the correct information of 70 km/h.

Hello

The locomotive pulls wagon with maximum speed limited to 70km/h?

I've seen cases where the loco had one speed and the tender had a different speed.  Can't remember off hand where.

Giuseppe,

Yes that's correct. The fastest the Jenny Lind engine can pull any wagon is 70km/h, but depot states that it should be 95km/h, but see below.

dustNbone,

Having gone back and checked, that is the problem. The Jenny Lind tender has a top speed of 70km/h and therefore that's the top speed of the whole convoy.  I hadn't thought of that.  Don't know if this is intended or whether it's a bug, but someone will know.

Thanks for the replies.

Oops - had not spotted this until now: apologies. Dave and DustNbone were correct - I had altered the speed to 95km/h (which speed is based on research as to the locomotive's actual top speed), but forgotten to change the tender. That should be fixed in the next version. Thank you for the report!

Hi James

It seems like this change was not done yet, although the pakset has been updated. The 'Jenny Lind' tender is still max speed 70 km/h

Are you checking Github or the released binary pakset?

Ahh - I've updated it in my local files, but have not issued a new release yet.
