Hello, discovered a problem with shunting at Bedford.

1991 timetable, doing the normal run-around move via the Goods Loop, but cannot set a route from 611 (green highlight) back towards occupied Platform 1.

Doesn't matter which of the Via buttons I use. Nor can I set a route from 613 (red highlight) towards Platform 1.

Each time, I am told 'no overlap available'. Nothing appears to be locked, so an overlap *should* be available?

This worked fine last time I played this timetable a few months ago. Not sure what's changed since then.

Cheers

Stupid question, but have you tried going direct from greeny to platform with the via, so greeny->via->platform?

611 - 613 - no via - 475 should work, indeed I've managed to set it with no issues in a simple test setup.

Take a look at Mantis 15839 (Core Code) I have a feeling this is a related issue, I've just run a quick test and what is happening on West Hampstead seems very similar to an issue I'm encountered on one of my in development projects (which we discussed on Skype the other night).

To the OP I will try and get back to you with my findings, there's definitely a bug there, but I haven't managed to track down the root cause of the bug.
