Excellent simulation but spoilt by the numerous entry points with no label. It so annoying having to guess where to put a train, telephone, wait for a reply then told that the train is not scheduled for that entry point. Some of the location names bear absolutely no relation to the labelled points on the simulation.

Ray,
You shouldn't need to guess as there is plenty of information on the locations available on the wiki.

There are also some problems with the calls to exits that were unable to be fixed before the meet. These have being addressed in an updated version I am working on.

Having said that, there are a couple of reasons why the locations are as they ate.
1) the real panels are labelled as you see in the sim so you are presented with the same information a signaler would be.
2) Immingham has upwards of 60 different locations (take a look at the wiki list if you want to see for yourself).
Some of those are accessed through the same entry/exit point. It is impractical to show all those locations on the screen.

If you have any suggestions on how you can fit them all in then let me know.
