How do I go about reversing a train at Signal 665 on the down main to then go through to Exeter St Thomas, and then in to Alphington Rd Sdg, as i cant seem to get the train to stop with that signal in the rear of it, it just goes down to the City Basin Siding reverse signal. What Location do i need to put in the timetable? Rev...??? Thanks in advanced

Never done this but should be as follows: Reversing locations are "Rev DML City Basin" and "Rev Exeter St T". Signal train on Down Main to Sig DM196, it will stop at City Basin siding and reverse to Sig 665. Then set route to Sig 33 at Exeter St Thomas, it will stop and reverse at Sig 664. Finally set route into Alphington Road. Hope this is correct and helps. Planotransitophobic! Log in to reply |

Shouldn't go as far as 665 if reversing point is set as Rev DML City Basin. Should stop at 663. 665 is the entry signal for City Basin siding with the reversing location being Rev DML Sig 661 (I think?) Planotransitophobic! Log in to reply |

Looking at it again I think the reversing point should be Rev DML Sig 661.

Try "Rev 664 Exteer StT" (but I am not sure) sloppyjag: it is the opposite: 663 is for the City basin, while 665 is for reverse from down to up (I did not rember where 661 is, after some search, I found it on the down line at Cowley Bridge Jn). Log in to reply |

Have had a look at the date set and there are some errors and a query I'll need to check with Geoff. 661 is indeed at Cowley Bridge but is infact coded to the TC for 665, however the valid paths for 661 will mean it will noto be accepted into the TT at ExStT. 665 has been omitted. You can set a route from 663 to 33 but not to 665, which I'll need to check is correct. Peter I identify as half man half biscuit - crumbs! Log in to reply |

I set up a test timetable and followed the train's progress on F2 and in the Current/Previous Location section it passes the location "Rev DML Sig 661" between St Thomas and Sig 665. So, if "Rev DML Sig 661" is indeed at Cowley Bridge then this does seem to be an error. However, as Peter says you can route directly from 665 to 33 so you can use the reversing points in my first post. Planotransitophobic! Log in to reply |

In fact having now corrected the data set I see that you should, in fact, be able to use "661" in the scenario you wish; but it'll be short-lived as the next release will be corrected. Peter I identify as half man half biscuit - crumbs! Log in to reply |
