No (sane) way to cancel "non-stop" setting?

I would have thought that the non-stop setting would have some method of cancellation should it be pressed in error. I could not find one, however, besides using the Incident Control Panel to operate the relevant track circuits!

Is this lack of a cancellation facility protoypical or is this a bug/oversight? Or have I just missed some obvious way of doing it?

I saw a manual reminder on Signal 59 on a recent visit to Swindon PSB which is there to remind signallers not to set a route to this Signal when a Down Train is crossing from Platforms 1 to 3, despite a full overlap being provided.

It is very prototypical and very annoying on the real panel as well. Also of note the selection for Warnham has always been set for the fast selection regardless of stopping pattern apart from a brief spell of a couple of weeks after it was fully commissioned several years after the rest of the panel. It's current status is that it prohibited from using it in the slow selection as part of SPAD mitigation for the drivers.

Hmm, but wouldn't that make the AHBC stay down for too long and increase the risk of LC abuse, which is presumably (based on the number of LC accidents vs other accidents) more likely than SPADs? Seems like strange logic to me. Or was it determined that even in the non-stop position, the LC is down for a short enough time for it not to be a problem?

Note that Warnham in just R/G MSL, not an AHB.

As Horsham Drivers H&S Rep I went to a meeting two weeks ago with Network Rail as they wanted to re-instate the slow/stopping option on the panel. They wanted to reduce the risk of crossing mis-use as with a down train the crossing can be red for pedestrians for up to 120 seconds. However countering this they could not provide any evidence of mis-use due to people waiting that length of time. This added to the fact that us drivers hate coming into a station on to a red aspect and that Warnham platform is at the end of a two mile plus down hill section that has notoriously poor grip meant that the permanent fast setting is to be retained for the foreseeable future.
