It happened because the signal is an automatic with a PL and it works as an automatic call-on (so probably not the disaster you assumed). I had the same issue on Paisley.

I'll report it with what I did to resolve.

Once I had a similar scene. After some time a call-on aspect appeared on signal 5.

I would guess not, I'd guess it's an unforseen issue in the sim data that means it behaves like an automatic call-on.

I have just done a test by manually dropping TTF Track, and then TTA Track, then sped up the time. I could replicate the results described. It appears those position lights should only be able to be operable in association with the Dean Hill GF (301) when released.

Indications are that these Position Lights should not operate in the manner they do on the sim.

Right, had it confirmed. Those Posi lights should only ever be operable in association with 301 GF when released.

So you wern't seeing things, it was a Wrong Side Failure. Thankfully not actually replicated in the field

As I said, it was an issue I had with Paisley which was easily resolved.

I'll investigate presently once I've recovered from a laptop bereavement.
I can only help one person a day. Today's not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look too good either.
