Hi all,

Here is a strange one. I have set WK126 (Up Slow at Surbiton) towards W232 (Up Fast) immediately behind the passage of 1P38 on the Up Fast. The route was set with 1A38 still passing over Hampton Court Junction, so the flashing aspects were automatically selected. WK126 is now alternating between red and yellow (danger and caution) in time with the flashing of WK128. WK128 is illuminated yellow when WK126 is red, and is not illuminated when WK126 is yellow. Looks freaky! XD

Save is attached.

The only thing odd I can find is that when 126 is red 128 is showing single yellow while when 126 is yellow 128 is showing flashing single yellow. Nothing else I can see is changing between the two states and I can't see anything unusual in the sim data that could cause this.

(Peterborough has an odd situation where a failure at one signal can cause another to alternate between red and yellow until the approaching train has reached a certain track circuit. It's explained somewhere in the forum and we believe it's prototypical. However, there's special data to make that happen.)

I can only guess it's something to do with the flashing detection, but I'd have to dig into the code.

Might this be the same issue as https://www.SimSig.co.uk/Forum/ThreadView/53268 ?

Hiya, thanks for looking into it.

On the surface it certainly looks identical, but I couldn't tell you if it has the same underlying cause.
