Don't mix DOS paletted and Windows paletted (New)GRFs, or set the appropriate palette for a (New)GRF when you've got a sufficiently new OpenTTD (i.e. a recent trunk one).

Let's hope he's not really dyslexic, Michael.

Quite obviously, the grf which provides you with new catenary (electric rail wires) is at fault.

It's this one:
newgrf\dutchcat\dutchcat.grf
You can see that it does NOT have a "w" at the end, which mostly indicates that it's the version that uses the windows palette. Look in the place where you got this .grf for the windows version.

Alternatively, use a recent enough version (nightly, 0.6.3 is not recent enough). There you can select a single grf in the NewGrf window and switch the palette for it.

@Alain:
Try the Windows version of the Dutch Catenary set. You can find that one here: http://grfcrawler.tt-forums.net/details ... ils&id=102, i.e. pick the file with the w at the end of the file name.

EDIT: Roujin was a bit quicker, but still here's the download location.

Dyslexia is a valid reason for certain mistakes. Failure to capitalize the word "I" and failure to use a spell-checker are not among the mistakes that dyslexia excuses.

@2007Alain2007:
Instead of posting a long list of GRF files you happen to use and asking us "what is wrong with this picture?", you could have found the found the offending GRF file yourself, by simply repeatedly dropping some of the GRF files, and check whether the problem disappears.

I may be more work, but you would have made a much better impression here by being able to post the solution rather than just asking questions.
