Question FBD on strike?

Playing Axis 41-45 suddenly one of my Repair units, FBD3, won´t repair rail?!
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.

Is it next to a rail line that has been repaired and is in your network? I have made this mistake before where I just move it where I think the line goes, only to discover that the actual rail line looped through a different hex.

Near Smolensk (although it happened near Kaunas as well) and I am sure this railline goes through this hex

Can you make a screenshot or write down the hexes involved?

If 85,51 is damaged you cannot repair 85,50

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...

But the 84,50 is repaired thus I SHOULD be able to repair the hex where the FBD is!

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.

Sorry Alfonso there is no such loop!
The rail goes 84,50 85,50 85,51 also I have moved the unit to all the adject hexes but the RRC does not appear.

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

Can you make a screenshot with the "R" function activated, to see the rail status??

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.
