Playing Exeter with St David's platform 6 under a T3 at the moment. Plenty of terminating trains in this sim got me to thinking: for every train approaching or at its terminus I click on its TD to see what it does when it gets there. Up pops the Show Timetable box with the info I am looking for and an OK button. I click OK, and right click the TD (or key I) to interpose the next working.

I was thinking this could be speeded up a little and made a little more friendly, if when approaching or at its terminus the Show Timetable box then also included a second button at the bottom labelled Interpose Next Working which did just that!

It would save a bit of clickery and keyboard thumping and be very useful when playing solo, IMHO.

In certain sims you can turn on ACI (Automatic Code Insertion) in the F3 options window, or in some sims it is a purple or blue button on-screen which can be turned on/off (sometimes per area). Exeter sim has neither, but, for example, Peterborough or North London Line has.
