I noticed that several automatic signals are displayed by a symbol that looks like a controlled signal controlled by a different signal box, i.e., they lack the specific stem marker for automatic signals. Examples are the automatic signals between Kenton and South Kenton in both directions. Why is this? Joern Log in to reply |

Some signals don't have a "passable" plate (used to be called an "auto" plate) in real life, so they don't have one in the sim. I thought this was mentioned in the manual. Log in to reply The following user said thank you: block_operator |

Thanks, I just found it. Is it possible to have a real permissive mode in the simulation, so that drivers would pass 'passable' signals at danger without asking for authority? Joern Log in to reply |

" said:Thanks, I just found it.

On that basis it's unlikely it would be implemented for passable-plated autos. Log in to reply |
