Hi,

The below seems odd and is reproduced with other late-running stoppers. Says it's arrived 2 seconds after previous departure!

I'm playing the 2006 TT with Early 2000s era.

Thanks
Jamie

To note, the time between departure from Prestwick Town and arrival at Airport in the Up direction was 89 seconds in sim for an Express Sprinter running under caution aspect. The fact that these are two separate block sections in the Up direction but only one Down is likely a consideration in the timing point calculation.

The train records arriving at both locations at the same time (If you're still awake, watch 1K73 in 25 mins).

Timing points are Brassie Jn and Ayr. Berth offsetting is used for PRA and PTW on the Down.

Cheers

Nope, developer simply put both at the same physical location, hence why it departs one and almost instantly arrives at the next. It can happen just as easily with two block sections with a simple typo.

Both are on the same TC but with the Position omitted, I just need to do the calculation(s) when I get home and access the plans.
Though at the moment I'm trying to decipher some coding I wrote in 2010 in NESCOT to fix something on that.
