Just something I've noticed on Westbury, both the scrolly and non-scrolly version. Let's say you have a train that's timetabled to Westbury West Reverse, and you send it to signal 106 (platform "DM"). If it's not too long, it'll clear the overlap of 104 and the route will drop out. You can then set a route from 105 to 407 (the standard route from the Up Main to platform 2). The train at 106 can (and usually does) then set off happily back towards 407, despite the points being set against it and/or another train being on those points or waiting at 407. Is this a bug, or just something that the signaller needs to be aware of? For that matter, am I doing the right thing in sending the first train all the way to 106? There doesn't appear to be anywhere else on the Down Main to send it to for the reversal. Log in to reply |

As first choice I tend to use the reverse at 699 on the Dn Salisbury, and only use 407 Dn Westbury when needs must, keeps conflicts to a minimum.
I can only help one person a day. Today's not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look too good either. Log in to reply |
