Trains reporting delays at Dinas Rhondda (and, perhaps, the rest of the Treforest branch?) call the host rather than the assigned signaller in multiplayer. I was told that trains doing the same at Treforest was intentional (perhaps because the GF is involved), but surely that decision doesn't apply to the whole line?

Edit: Trains calling at red "signals" at Ystrad Rhondda do the same, despite calling the correct person to get their tokens!

All phone calls from hidden signals on the Rhymney and Treherbert sections go to the host. They don't exist in real life so don't go to the workstation. Clients need to be on the ball for a token phone call.

I've checked the sim data and I can't see why a train would phone the host for a delay at Dinas Rhondda or anywhere else on the branch. Did the client definitely have the workstation under there control? Did they answer the phone call promptly or did it come to the host after the usual wait time.

"Passengers for New Lane, should be seated in the rear coach of the train " - Opinions are my own and not those of my employer

Yes, the client did have the workstation under their control, and they were receiving the token phone calls normally, but their telephone dialog did not show any calls available for them to answer. Also, the host's telephone dialog didn't show the usual indication that the call has been routed to a client.
