Hi,

In the attached, 4D79 has called wrong route "Not booked via Bentley Quarry" when signalled from D844 to D824.
Presumably because there's no signalled move on the crossover, but a confusing message.

Thanks
Jamie

The train is booked to go to Doncaster, and the driver knows they can't get there by accepting the route toward 824 as there's no signaled route beyond there.

It's saying not booked via Bentley Quarry as that's the location you can legitimately reach from 824 albeit only in the earlier era.

EDIT - Note I replied to the original opening post before it was editted which read

FWIW when we write data that causes trains to call wrong route, we can do it in various ways. Often it's "don't take this route if you need to get to X, Y, or Z" but when a route leads to a single location like this, we can write it to only accept the route if routed towards that specific location. That's why it says "not booked via Bentley Quarry" as that is the only location accessible from that route. And no, there is no signalled move back to the Up Main there.
