Hi all,

I have a train (6E11) standing in the UPL at Granthouse. A L.E. (0E11) has just uncoupled from the traim and is booked to go into Granthouse Engineering Sidings before returning to Millerhill.

The problem is I cannot release the G.F. to allow 0E11 into the sidings.

I'm playing the 1993 tt.

Thanks!

Have you done everything right, as it is shown here?

If so then you should also make sure that points are swung in the appropriate position(s) at Grantshouse - i.e: you'll need the points into and back out of the loop swung to their normal position, not reverse.

Hope this helps.

This was the solution when I had the problem as described - the area controlled by the ground frame is then protected from the main line.

Cheers folks,

Putting the points on the Up Loop into normal solved the problem.
