Rather baffled as to how to get this train from signal AF45 to route towards Platform 5. I get the message ''Set Running Shunt first" which i haven't seen before... Post has attachments. Log in to view them. User | Multiplayer Host | Timetable Writer Log in to reply |

Essentially the interlocking for AF45 requires AF59 to be clear before you can pull AF45. in this case, AF59 acts as a running shunt as it is used as part of the route indication, and you cannot stop a train at that signal. If AF59 is at red with a route set forwards, you cannot set AF45 onto it

I'm so confused by this exact scenario. So...if I have a train stopped at a AF45/AF9, then I've already gone too far? I'm so confused.

You need to set the routes in reverse order. 1) Set AF59 to AF90 2) Set AF45 to AF59 "Passengers for New Lane, should be seated in the rear coach of the train " - Opinions are my own and not those of my employer Log in to reply The following user said thank you: Newhampshires |

FWIW&AFAIK similar arrangement existed in Penzance, and Motherwell M368 and (presumably) M372 - M374 - M394. Pretty sure there's a design principle written down somewhere, which should clear things up. Log in to reply |

It is a fairly common arrangement in mechanical areas.
