Everybody else: I've read the issues and believe I've fixed the majority of them. Update to follow soon, though the timetable will be a little longer.
Now online. Please click "check for updates". Issues fixed are listed in the manual.

I also included some regulation tips in the same manual.

at Church Fenton, ARS routes trains from Milford, with line code LSL, onto the down Normanton. is this correct?
The relevant issue is the platform at Church Fenton. If it's "2" then there is no choice beyond so LSL is invalid (but ARS will route it anyway as there is no other choice). Are you sure you're not seeing LSL at Colton South Jn (where they *can* get to the LSL)?


[quote="jc92" post=78986]I'm also finding ARS is setting Certain routes out of leeds station 2 mins before booked departure as opposed to waiting for TRTS, whilst others wait for TRTS
Looks like some trains are booked platform 3 then LSL so the issue might be with that timetabled path validating.

At around 2.20 am, the train 4E84 is directed to go to Hunslet FHH. However, where exactly is the required destination for this train once it passes the ground frame ? The manual does not make it very clear. Is it assumed that all trains arriving at this point go to Middleton Railway ?
route it into DS1.
I ran 4E84 from the reception, through the shunt line and onto the main line. When he stopped at the first signal I manually reversed him into DS2+, along with another train which arrived earlier whose number I can't remember.

Phil.
That unfortunately only results on 4E84 standing at the buffer stops? I tried the same move with the earlier 4D85, but then reversing on the 'Shunt line' This only resulted in the train not wanting to move any way at all due to 'point set in reverse' or something like that. In the end I just magically removed both. At any rate both miss some moves in the TT to get into the siding.

Can someone please explain to me how you can reverse a train in this simulation. Sometimes it is necessary to reverse a train into Leeds FLT, so when the train is positioned at the appropriate siding and a slot has been given, I abandon the timetable for the train, I apply the command "reverse direction" in the signalling options menu and the message on the train list shows "manually reversing". The only problem is that the train sits and doesn't move. So I apply the command "shunt forward" and it moves but in the wrong direction ! In previous sims, the commands described above are sufficient to shunt a train into a siding with no difficulty and no delay.

Part of the latest core code prevents trains from reversing instantly, they take a little time for the driver to change ends and sort himself out ready to move.

Have you left it a couple of sim minutes to see if he completes the reversing ?

I did leave the train for a time although I was in very slow mode so it may have been insufficient time in simulation minutes.

It takes one minute (simulation time) for trains to reverse when told to reverse via F2.

Possible TT bug: Shouldn't 5C11 and 5C13 have 'passing time' ticked at Leeds?

EDIT: 3T02 at Marsh Lane Jn also applies.

Leeds City has now been updated to version 1.3. Issues fixed are listed here. The main issue of interest is the issue of trains running Gascoigne Wood<->Sherburn Jn<->Church Fenton<->Colton Jn which I believe should now be fixed.

No, all three listed as stops - though without an arrival time. All three listed as OP ("stops for other operating reasons"while 3T02 also has A ("stops or shunts for other trains to pass").

Something minor I've noticed. The TT for trains leaving the Leeds FLT doesn't seem to step up after passing Stourton Junction.
