It has 16 MP stands on a rail line that is 100% damaged next to repaired rail but no RRC is displayed!

I wish I could add picture to better display this but I do not know how.

Your repair unit is in 85,50. But the pop-up says that 85,51 is damaged. Therefore, you cannot repair 85,50.

Move your rail unit to 85,51, repair it, and then go again to 85,50...

No

That is what Klydon said before. The rail makes a V-shaped loop and it passes by 85,51.

There has been today a similar post, around Kaunas...

EDIT: Vilnius
EDIT 2: I am wrong here. He speaks of 84,50 and not 85,50.

Ah, OK sorry, you are arriving from the left!! from Vitebsk? Then you are more than 5 hexes away from the railhead?.

Status: offline 		The popup at hex 85,51 says off rail range 16, so I'd look for a partisan attack 16 hexes away.Seems most likely.

Status: offline 		please can you repost picture showing the colour overlay for converted/broken rail hexes as probably the only way to see the problem
