I've done a bit of fiddling around and it seems that it's only locos which
existed at the time of the conversion from normal to electric track that are
affected. Brand new locos have no problem transferring between the two types
of track, and thus, if I renew a train, it works fine.

However, brand new electric stuff still goes over the old track without
issue.

Be a shame if I have to restart as this particular savegame has been 5 years
in the making ;)
