Yes, it might just be me, so don't shout i'm getting old..........

Can't seem to signal a train from 312/212 to 214 (Frome platform starter - down)

Keep getting "No Overlap Available" message.

Works OK in Up direction 93 to 195.

Hope someone can assist.

Neil

You can't signal from the above even without a train present. The first I knew of it was with 2A90 on the standard 2007 timetable with V4

Hmm, you haven't got a points failure meaning the overlap is forced towards either of the sidings have you?

Might want to enable "Show point positions" to check that one out, or perhaps force them straight by left clicking on them.

No offence but this has nothing to do with the issue.

Set a route from 214 to 216 first, then you can set 312/212 to 214. Am investigating if that should really be the case in real life as it's a little odd.

Points set correctly, Sacro. I really think it's a bug of some kind as it works ok in the up direction.

214 - 216 sets ok and yes, THEN I can get 312/212 - 214! Thanks!

Just puzzled that in the "old" version you could signal forward in the direction of travel without having to signal a forward route first.

Now I know what to do, no problems!!

Geoff I just check the rail atlas and the track on the sim is right.

Slightly over zealous overlap locking on on 214.
