I've not seen any posts regarding this yet, but occasionally I don't get the Up/Down Train Approaching indication. It's previously happened on the Up at Bromfield, the Down at Tram Inn, and now I've caught it on the Up at Tram Inn. I've attached a save. Regards, Phil. Post has attachments. Log in to view them.

A strange thing happened to me last night: I had a train enter at Ledbury and the Ledbury signaller requested the slot. I accepted, but immediately there was a message saying the train had had an ACOA at a Ledbury signal. The train then proceeded to Shelwick Jn as normal after phoning Control. No other trains about and the block for the Ledbury line was normal before it happened; but this was the second of two successive trains through the block in the same direction. Unfortunately I didn't think to take notes when it happened. Log in to reply |

I can't work out if I have a bug or I'm missing something but I can't signal any trains to stop short in the down direction on either the Down Relief (H60 to the arrow short of H51) or Platform 2 (H58 to the arrow short of H57) so that the overlap doesn't lock the south end of the station. When I try and signal either of these, I get the message "Route not available". Please note that I can signal a train from H58 to the arrow on Platform 1 without any issues. I'm running version 1.1 and only seems to affect these two locations. Post has attachments. Log in to view them. Log in to reply |

You should only use the shunt exit arrows for shunt moves and call-ons. Normal arrivals should be signalled on main aspects. Off the top of my head, there are few if any moves in the supplied timetable that would require the shunt arrows. The routes that give a 'not available' message likely require the platform to be occupied before the route can be set. Whether the different behaviour is correct for different lines is one for the developer.

Thanks, that one has never been spotted before, Mantis 33085 raised to get it fixed. It'll be included in the next update of the simulation.

Another speeling mistook is in the six locations at Abergavenny other than the station (e.g Up Sidings, Down Siding, UGL etc.) It should have two 'n's not one. Screenshot attached. ![]() Post has attachments. Log in to view them. Log in to reply |

Hi, In the token instrument in Pantyfffynnon box, the label says "Llaneilo" - is that a deliberate misspelling? Thanks Jamie Jamie S (JAMS) Log in to reply |

Spotted a small mistake while playing Hereford today: Crossing 273 on the HoW is Cilyrychen (so spelling is slightly wrong) but more importantly it is an ABCL (crosses the main A483 road) not a UWC. Cheers. Log in to reply The following user said thank you: andyallen4014 |

Looking at the area, I also see a crossing that does not appear to be depicted at all: https://www.google.nl/maps/@51.8107443,-4.0005815,3a,52.7y,261.25h,89.41t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sMVEQnnq2jcRIFInX6JGrmQ!2e0!7i13312!8i6656?hl=nl

Yes you're right, between Llandybie and Ammanford there is an AOCL called Brynmarlais (at 12m 28ch) which is indeed missing from the sim.

If I'd included every crossing along the HOWL without a phone, we'd have around another 200 crossings. If there hadn't already been so many crossings it might have been included just as a label, but not on this occasion. NicholasN in post 137438 said: Spotted a small mistake while playing Hereford today:I agree the spelling is wrong, so I've added that to 33085 to correct. As for the type of crossing NESA has it now as an ABCL. The original table A digram I used when making the sim has an AOCL marked, and a "cattle creep", with the cattle creep having the phones. I don't know if you're local to the area? If you are was that ever the case or was it a mistake in the SA. Google Maps Streetview is too modern, though there doesn't look like there was much room for a cattle creep, but what I have in my head from the SA diagram is something like Whitbeck on the Cumbrian Coast.

headshot119 in post 137444 said:That's fair enough, there are certainly plenty enough crossings depicted as it is! A deliberate choice to leave those without phones off is probably very wise. And as a locally monitored crossing it doesn't particularly need a phone so I would guess that the SA is correct. headshot119 in post 137444 said: I have driven across the crossing (up to a few years ago) regularly and do not recall it NOT being an ABCL, but that goes back to about, hmm, 2005 or so. Before then it is possible it may have been an AOCL at some point, but being on the A483 it surely can't have been like that in this century, anyway. I also can't recall if there was or wasn't a cattle creep associated but I expect there is/was, it being a main road. Log in to reply |

Yes, it's always subject to approach release from red for the down relief, and is approach release from red to the down main unless H58 is off.

Evening All, I'm working on a timetable for Hereford based on the spring of 1992, with the help of a few WTTs and documents, as well as my step dad, a local to the area. I've come across a slight hick up as timetabled there is a train to Glascoed (off Little Mill Junction) and back from Newport (from Crewe before on the Marches). I can timetable the train to Glascoed but I can't coming back as it isn't finding a path from the entrance to Little Mill Junction, and I think the suggested paths are more shunting moves. I understand the timetable I'm making is slightly before the era the sim was designed for, but I'm unsure why a move can be made there but not back. I've had a look about the forum too and can't see a mention of the problem. Any help would be gratefully received. Many Thanks, Trainzy :) ![]() Post has attachments. Log in to view them.

That train never normallu ran to ADJ apparently. Instead it ran round at Panteg, having stopped at Pontypool to collect a travelling shunter.
