Issue with reversing LUL services at Harrow and Wealdstone 27/01/2019 at 11:56 #115099

I've fired up Wembley Sub with Summer 2012 Olympic Friday (Chainable) with Willesden Junction Bay not extended and the Croxley Branch doesn't exist any more...

When ever I signal the LUL train into the reversing siding there which is where J226-15 for example is meant to turnback in before forming it's next working of K226-16, the sim keeps saying I've wrong routed the train as it's classed as a goods siding and as such I lose points.

Is this a well known issue as there is nothing in the manual to say of any issues, I am running the most up to date version of the sim too.

Also saying I have "the most up to date version" is not very helpful to investigating an issue, as it doesn't actually tell us what version you are using.
"Passengers for New Lane, should be seated in the rear coach of the train " - Opinions are my own and not those of my employer

I thought that was more then helpful?

Anyway, loader v4.9 and Wembley Sub 2.1 are the versions

Reason being some people say they're running the latest, we ask for the version number, and it turns out they're not running the latest at all. It happens a lot.

When a sim has been out as long as Wembley Sub, it is almost certain that any problems have already been found by earlier users and discussed and hopefully resolved in the Forum. For example the "tick the freight line" option was mentioned in the second posting in this topic which includes a link back to a thread dating from 2017 where the same solution is given.

If a sim does have a problem it is always worthwhile using the Search facility (link in the left-hand sidebar in the desktop version of the web-site) as the problem is probably not new - however, it doesn't give the same satisfaction as solving a problem for yourself!

I just tried that and it didn't work for train K225-2. It was already in the area though, so I'll reload the last save and retry before it changes to that train.

Thinking out loud since "tick the freight line" sounds like a bit of a bodge, would the correct solution involve splitting the timetable if necessary (wherever the train goes out of/into passenger service) and then making sure that the correct Class of Service (i.e. ECS whenever the train is not in passenger service) is set on the respective timetable portions?
Two million people attempt to use Birmingham's magnificent rail network every year, with just over a million of them managing to get further than Smethwick.

No need to split the TT now as there is the option to change the train type mid-timetable. You would need 2 train types ("LUL in service" without the goods lines ticked and "LUL ECS" with goods lines ticked or Class of Service set).

There is a new WembleySub in the pipeline. I forget whether I did it in the sim or the timetable, but it's fixed.
