I've run into a problem with routing trains in and out of platforms at Euston. It started when I struggled to route light engine 0M34 from platform 7 to the Down Carriage Shed via the Down Carriage Shed shunt neck. I assumed the route should be via BOR 1 or 2, but although this should be a valid route, using DEG route selectors, I could not set a route; always getting the message "Point(s) locked normal by another route", even though no other trains were in the vicinity nor other routes set. Rightly or wrongly, I changed some points manually by clicking on them, and eventually I managed to set a route. However since then, virtually every route I have tried to set into and out of Euston's platforms have failed, unless I set some of the points manually. It all worked perfectly up to then... Can anyone shed light on: 1) How I should have got 0M34 to the Down C.S. Shunt Neck 2) How I can "reset" things so that the routing works OK? Many thanks! Rob Log in to reply |

I've attached a saved game, just overlook the piled up trains - it only got this bad once the routing problem started  Thanks, Rob Post has attachments. Log in to view them.

Hi Rob, In your save file you have a load of points locked (blue points) if you left click the points and clear the blue then you can route as normal. Tlib Log in to reply |

" said:Hi Rob,Thanks Tlib, I'll give that a go. Still not sure why 0M34 wouldn't route from P7 to BOR1 or 2; I've gone back and still can't see any locked points at that stage; I think I've inadvertantly locked them in my attempt to set a route for 0M34 then compounded the problem thereafter...

" said:" said:Hi Rob,Thanks Tlib, I'll give that a go. Cancel that; just looked closer and one set was locked, preventing the route from P7 to BOR from setting. All now fine. Thanks to all for help and advice. Rob Log in to reply |
