There is a bug while self driving a train and disconnect the car, they will move in the other direction in full speed. If your speed is 1.00, the speed of the cars is -1.00 (same speed, but other direction). That means if you push a train instead of pulling, it is a instant crash.

Hello, thank you for the report.
I tested it, and connecting/disconnecting trains in different setups and combinations of directions of rolling stocks had similar kinds of problems.
Now it is all fixed, when you disconnect, connect moving trains they still move as you would expect.

On top of it, I will change, that the forward/backward direction in manual driving will be relative to the direction of the rolling stock the player is riding.
This was especially annoying with trains that could go both directions, as it didn't matter if the player entered the back/front locomotive going forward was still the same direction.

This is a really nice change, thank you very much, i use trains for travel far distances and this helps very much
