The control table shows the sub on CE46 only applies to P3. It doesn't apply to the down main. This may be a prohibited movement now but it's still in the interlocking. However, the sub itself wasn't there in the original 1973 commissioning.

Thanks for the info regarding the Emergency Replacements, although I still maintain that CE33 should have one.

Regarding the Motherwell fringe, what you have on the 1980s screenshot is the 1980s fringe on the Down main, but the current day fringe on the Up main.

P1 at Carlisle should be shown extending right up to CE301 signal as it does on the panel and in reality - the screenshot shows it ending at CE314 which is incorrect. I also think there are more warner routes in the station area than are shown. Will check later.

A problem with SCE144 was noted at the meet which has since been fixed.
Don't know whether the bug I've found is the same one noted at the meet, but here it is: in some cases, when loading a saved game, CE144 shows a proceed aspect. Initially I thought it was whenever a route was set from CE143, but I've since managed to load a game with that route set and with CE144 showing red.

Just going by the screen shot of the sim posted here, but aren't the catch points on the Up Newcastle, next to F938 ground frame, pointing to the wrong side of the line?
Two million people attempt to use Birmingham's magnificent rail network every year, with just over a million of them managing to get further than Smethwick.

The catch-points on the Down Goods Line at Upperby look similar.

Don't know if this has been mentioned but on the screenshot a few pages back there doesnt seem to be a Gretna Green station and the Dumfries line has been re-doubled.

Looking forward to this sim :)

the 2000s era has the doubled line to dumfires and annan, as is appropriate. as for gretna green. its a long closed station, and im not sure if it even appears on the real panel

Thanks for that, however I drove past Gretna Green station today, it was reopened in 1993.

Looking forward to play it.

For Gretna Green station, would a stopping Up train wait in the platform until the driver can (I assume) see the banner repeater go off, or should they be departing as booked regardless of the state of the banner repeater, stopping at Signal CE525 if needed? From a quick bit of research online (Google Maps, Flickr photos, YouTube videos, etc.), it looks like you cannot see CE525 (so it is not a platform starter (also possibly evident by the fact that there is a banner repeater)). I get the feeling they're erroneously waiting at Gretna Green station beyond the booked departure time (showing in F2 as waiting right-away) until CE525 is off, before departing.

Have been concerned about this throughout my current game of the 2009 TT and trying to watch the situation as closely as I can.

(Going to try checking this now with a conveniently-timed save)

2. When i selected CE527 to route him on to CE525, then changed my mind and right clicked on CE527 to deselect him, the flashing balck and white indicator that flashes the location of the signal on the track remains in its last state (either black or white) rather than returning to grey track per normal

2. The entrance cursors are a noted problem and have been fixed.
Not just an issue with Carlisle - happens in a number of other sims too. Guess I just put it down to a core code bug, but as it was so minor I have never reported it on the bug board. Might have that wrong, or am confusing it with another non-bug-of-a-bug.

Indeed as I suspected it does seem to be a bug. Have added to bug board (#8581).

It's not a CC bug, it usually happens where the cursor is on a Combined display TC - Sim data needs to be explicitly set to note that fact.

Hi There,
I don't know if this has been mentioned before, if it has apologies.
I am runn ing Carlisle in 200o mode and I set up two TSRs using the F11 key. After saving and reopening simulation the TSRs are still in situ, but they do not appear in the F11 TSR window.

Am playing the 2009 v1.61 04.45 start and by 09.00 I have sent 4 trains off to Wigton but none have exited the area, they just hog the line with 'no more timetabled trips' thus effectively blocking the line. Is this a known bug ? I couldn't find any mention.

Hi Tony,

This is a known bug, you need to abandon the timetable and the train will leave the sim. Workaround for now until a rerelease

Manual now updated so this shows in the "Known Bugs" section.

Or just shunt the train forward.
