Help! I can normally work any SimSig these days but I'm stumped. I've managed to send trains into the non-wired parts of Lo Wu without difficulty, but cannot get T820 in to the through sidings. I apparently have a route set from 2540 to 2580 to LWSB6 but 2540 won't clear. The wiki says that a slot is required for all moves into the depot, but I can see no way to request or grant one. It's the same at Ho Tung Lau. The crossing is closed and clear and ARS has set a route to HTL587. The train won't budge. I've tried granting the slot adjacent to the stop board but that doesn't help. What am I overlooking? Log in to reply The following user said thank you: wesley2628 |

Thank you. I'd decided that that slot was purely for traffic into the spur.

I would suggest that further update removes all the levers at Lowu Marshalling Yard - It is controlled by a local control panel similar to Kowloon Yard and eventually replaced by an internal Chinese-made Computer Based Interlocking. The Traffic Controller on the main line does not have control over the Yard. It should be manned by a separate workstation and the control should be push-push similar to the main line. ps: attached are the photo of the old LCP at Lowu Marshalling Yard.

The Yard has been controlling by a Chinese made CBI since 2000 era. And yes, the yard is not a part of running line thus Traffic Controllers have no control on it.   Post has attachments.
