Trains now TRTS and will phone in from the right signal.

I will try and sort out a refreshed version soon...

Hi Sam, as I put in my post yesterday evening, I think I solved this for the interim by only interposing at the 'buffer' end, then on departure the train seems to behave ok, I then interpose any subsequent TD at the buffer end again. As a relative newbie I enjoy trying to solve probs as they pop up, but probably not always in the approved fashion, lol!

Mal.

This is not an issue to do with the location of the Train Description. This is to do with there not being a signal the buffer-stops side of the siding points on the platform line. A work around in SimSig was made, but needs more work.

I have fixed it in my data, but there is more I want to do with it.

Well as that's how it always used to be done IRL (and maybe still is)... how about it as an option Matt?

476 posts 		Hi all, I've so far managed to work round the signal problems with Plat 1, 5 and 7. I keep an eye for departure time and then set the road, and trains then move ok.

Edit - Had a better idea, use a sticky - foolproof, lol!
