Carlisle Issues

Even though I can see the lamp is out on CE493 and can manipulate the aspect by returning 483 to Danger, in real life you can't see lamp indications on auto's in older PSB's so the first indication you get when something is amiss is when the driver stops at the red signal in rear of a black one (or on some old installations at the black signal itself, where the previous signal goes to single yellow).

For a more realistic display

Under F3 -> Display -> Tick Panel Signals

This will show you only Red & Green aspcts on signals, and hide the automatic signal aspects

Have also had a PF on the trailing crossover at Oxenholme (failed Reverse) and am unable to set a route from CE42 (UGL) (or CE41 to UGL). Yet, as the screenshot below shows, it is possible to route down trains via the DGL.

Once the overlap drops you will be able to set the route from CE41 to the UGL.

Once 3M07 draws up to CE41 and the overlap drops out you should be able to route through the UGL and out at the far end.

I haven't seen the control tables. However, the first is quite common with older interlockings: the interlocking sees the overlap occupied as a SPAD and thus locks the junction. This is not so common these days because failures like this are a little detrimental. The second is because of the two trailing points in the same TC: the TC occupied (from the loop) would lock the points between the main lines, meaning the Down Main would be unusable until the TC was cleared.

It appears that you did not set the Ground Frame 954. It is required for trains going to Eastrigg MOD Depot.

You have to wait for the train to stop before you can open the ground frame - the train sailed past the entrance at a steady 40 mph

I've got a vague memory that something like that happened in testing but couldn't be reproduced so it was written off as just one of those things. What happened to 6A48 which follows and is also booked into Eastriggs?

I've just completed a full run of the 2009 GHD timetable from 00:00 right to the end. It's been a brilliant run throughout and mostly enjoyed.

Only had one hitch and that's this:
1M86 Seeds at SAN4 which is 22:03 Glasgow Central - Carlisle (SR 2/156) is to terminate at Carlisle. It then waits 5N97 23+50 Dumfries - Carlisle (SR 2/156) to arrive to join then form 1S40 06:09 Carlisle - Glasgow Central (SR 4/156). Sadly 5N97 doesn't enter the sim at 00:14. It seems to be held by a rule which I looked and found that 5N97 is to enter so many mins after 2N97 arrives at Dumfries. Which makes it 24:11 entering the same some what 24hrs later than planned. The 00:14 won't enter unless its UID is slightly ammended to G46092-B or something like that. I did exactly that and both 5N97s ran accordingly at 00:14 and 24:11.

Rule on 1M86/5N97s & 1S40 hasn't been sorted?

A sim update is required as some of the TIPLOCs required by a GHD 2015 TT were not written in to the sim. Tom has this in hand. The updated sim will require revised versions of 1979 and 2009 TTs. Along with the TIPLOC changes, the revised versions will fix the issues that have been raised here and in other Carlisle threads since the sim version was released.
