Firstly, why is it when starting up the simulation the Auto-Working button on signal 712 ("Cadwell" Up Fast) is collared with a Reminder? I cannot see any reason why I shouldn't / couldn't use it for auto working upto the next signal (708). Secondly, should I really be able to signal a route from shunt signal 232 (on the Down Slow outside Hitchin Down Yard) to shunt signal 220 (Hitchin Down Fast) by clicking on signal 690 (Hitchin Up Slow)? Any views and / or opinions expressed by myself are from me personally and do not represent those of any company I either work for or am a consultant for. Log in to reply |

The collar is there in real life to. The local rules there say you should only set a route from the signal when you can set a route across the Hitchin Jn. I think the 2nd problem you have is a genuine problem. Signal 220 also clears to a shunt aspect while no route is reserved. It should be a small fix, I have reported it on the bugboard.

Broodje S232 is only for platform 2 have never given a shunt to the fast line. With respect. Rudolf Log in to reply |

I know what it is and where, that is why I reported it on the bugboard.

Just thought I point out that out but you are indeed very correct in the reason for the collaring of said signal, it's done because the end result of a HST and a FCC using it at the same time would not be pretty.

Ah, oops you are right, Cambridge Jn also has a better 'ring' in it as Hitchin Jn ;).

One more possible issue I noticed when playing it today - KC360R (on up Moorgate near Drayton Park) seems to be stuck permanently on caution, even when the next signal is clear. Can't recall it doing that on the old versions, so should this be happening? GM Log in to reply |

It occurs to me that double-blocking on the approaches to junctions like Cambridge Junction is a relatively new thing (post Ladbroke Grove perhaps?) I'm pretty certain it wasn't a feature when KX was commissioned, or the locking would surely have enforced it rather than relying on collaring a route. So for earlier timetables (such as Kurt's 1985 jobbie) it would be correct to have 712 uncollared. Yet another feature to be defined by date options when starting the sim perhaps?

Possibly, to be fair KX was released long, long before the option to show different layouts. The latest release only had some minor errors fixed, and a conversion to a scrolly layout was done. If KX gets different layouts someday I would love to see a layout with the diesel shed in place at KX, but I've learned not to hold my breath when I make such requests ;).
