Both 1R82 and 5R39 are scheduled in Platform 15:

5R39 08:47 09:15
1R82 08:50 09:00

However, 1R82 is 2x170, which triggers "overlength train" at Mound Tunnels.

Assume that one of them should use an alternate platform - 12 appears to be the only one free at that time by my quick reckoning?

Excellent sim by the way Playing 2006 at home and 1993 at "work" for comparison purposes

P15 is 225m long with TC lengths from buffers are: 140 - 45 - 40m.

The overlength indicator has to assume any partially occupied TC is fully used, the situation is as real life. Instruct the driver to pass red if you're sure the total train lengths are less than 225m (plus 3m gap) and it should fit OK.

(if there is a 4 coach set @ say 80m at the buffers, indicator will assume there's only 45+40m left for use)

I can only help one person a day. Today's not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look too good either.

Revised version (when available) will have TC override which I overlooked on the first release.
