Hi, In the attached save... Train 2E68 came to a stand at E35 which wouldn't clear. Signaller cleared the route into P6 as shunt E35-E677 & E677-E137. E35 showed call-on and E677 went white. However, 2E68 then complaining because E677 unlit. After train was talked through the G/S it changed back to a red display as the route released. Is this a display/behaviour bug?

From the wiki: Quote: Shunt signal aspects are not necessarily 'proved' lit, and so a failure will not necessarily be shown on the panel. Log in to reply |

I noticed the E677 bit myself when I took over Panel B and I did wonder if it was a bug. I expected that the signal would not go white if it was unlit. I wonder how it would show on a real ROC layout. Dave Log in to reply |

In WR E10k interlocking, present shunts normally only require the shunt to be "Not On" in order for the main signal to clear. As long as the shunt is called to an off aspect, the main will clear, even if the shunt isn't lit. Log in to reply The following user said thank you: kbarber |
