First of all Happy New Year to all.
Now, the issue is, I simply cannot select a train in free roam (just installed Railworks but I'm already familiar with it). I read a thread of a guy with the same issue but couldn't find a solution. Maybe this is something painstakingly obvious but apparently all you have to do is click on a train and you become the driver. I can't click, though. When I load any free roam scenario, I am put into a location from which I cannot move, I have no menu and no buttons (don't know if this is normal). Sometimes there are visible trains, other times there aren't. No matter how much I click on a train, it doesn't do anything, and I am stuck with no buttons and the game refuses to do anything. I have clicked every button on the keyboard - the only thing that works is '9' which opens the map. The map works fine and the switches change completely fine. All other scenarios work fine
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you!!

From everything I read this is not possible. What I would really want to do is set up a regular service back and forth passing through my main yard and still have the ability to 'play trains' in the remainder of the system. The regular service doesn't stop, it simply passes through the yard once in each direction once a day, also the tracks used by the regular service do not interact in any way with any of the remainder of the network..
How about if I setup a standard scenario with the scheduled service included and a designated drivers engine some rolling stock and some kind of dummy task which I ignore?
Never done anything with scenarios so any pointers are welcome..
