Mod note - for anyone reading this thread with the same problem the steps to resolve it are described in the simulation manual. Hiya, I'm playing the Picc simulation with the supplied 2015 SX timetable and 5M05 Nottingham - Warrington is not progressing beyond the entry point at Ashburys. Its booked to enter at 0626 then thru Picc plat 14 and on to Warrington. As a result, all trains booked to run behind it from the down Ashburys don't get described as they are behind 5M05, and the game gets stuck at this point. Has anyone else had this problem? Attached game at the saved point @ 0655 attached. (30 mins after the train should be passing) Post has attachments. Log in to view them.

Looking at the incident report you had a TCF in the Piccadilly area, can you state where the TCF was please. As having looked at your save, I have accounted for all the trains listed in the F2 train list and 5M05 is not among them.

phil1044 in post 107385 said:Hiya,Does this post 103263 and its thread relate to the problem? Seems likely to me, this has occurred randomly in mplay, usually just cancelling the TD as explained there fixes the bottleneck. I can only help one person a day. Today's not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look too good either. Last edited: 08/04/2018 at 14:47 by AndyG Reason: syntax Log in to reply |

Hi Andy. Ive cancelled the decription as you suggested via the link, which has worked, but the train is still stuck in the description, so nothing else can come behind it. The sim wont let you cancel it as its described. 5M05 is not on the train list so you cant cancel it that way either ! The TCF was infront of signal 340 Marc, which has since cleared Log in to reply |

If you don't get a menu option when right clicking a signal, go to F3 select the control tab and untick "Right-click cancels route" then click OK, and the right click on signal 311 Last edited: 08/04/2018 at 15:50 by MarkC Reason: None given Log in to reply |

Just for the record, even if a TD remains in a queue berth it is only a piece of text in a position on the screen. If the underlying train is not present, then the next train due will pass through the TC and will overwrite the text with its own TD. “In life, there is always someone out there, who won’t like you, for whatever reason, don’t let the insecurities in their lives affect yours.” – Rashida Rowe Log in to reply |
