If you think you've found a bug, or have a problem running the simulation, then check through this thread first.

Remember timetables are dealt with in the relevant timetable thread. As this simulation contains two distinctly different eras, please mention the era if asking a question or are reporting a potential bug.

In 2006 era, Colwich to Brereton Sidings Train Out of Section is earlier than expected.
Train Out of Section is requested when the train passes BS19 signal instead of when it passes the overlap/clearing point.

Andi, this is a quirk of the way the SimSig absolute block system works, because the track circuits over the points do not lock the block it will trigger once the last one which does goes clear.

I don't know which sim this is a bug on or if it's a known bug but when chaining Walsall to Wolverhampton, the track circuits on the Down Grand Junction between WL215 and WN244 are misaligne.

Can someone explain why I can't accept 6M07?
It's the second thime this train was offered. The first time I accepted it but it stopped at CH62 and would't move. Some time later I decided to try to cancel the acceptance. That didn't seem to do anything but then 2K06 appeared in the approach berth and then entered my area. I was then offered 6M07 again but at that time a train was coming from the power station. That is now clear of the junction but I'm still unable to accept 6M07.
Note that trains leaving towards Rugeley TV are also backed up.

Hi Trolleybus

I have just had a look and have found that the points (BS15) from Rugeley Power Station (Outlet line) needs to be reversed (normal) then you can accept 6M07. In turn this will clear the backlog.

Hope this helps

Thanks. I thought I'd swung and locked those points to no avail, but it's working now.
