I notice that there is no warning that comes up on the messages if the player fails to raise the barriers at Coundon Road MCB in the 2004-2007 era sim. Is this typical of the signalling system?

No, but it represents the horde of angry motorists outside the box when the barriers stay down too long with no train!

Think the maximum time I'd had them down legitimately was around 15 minutes, and they got the bonus of getting to see the same train twice, in different directions, the Dogbox going Nuneaton towards Coventry and then back towards Nuneaton, with two liners and a water train thrown in too, all at ~8am in the morning!

And it wasn't unknown for one signalman (not me) to forget they were down, even though it was outside the window!
