Hello,

In the picture shown, I need to get 5T14 to platform 1 of Portsmouth harbour.
I tried everything I could to set a route but could not do anything. I somewhat understand shunt signals but still can't do anything about it.

Any help?

Set a route from the signal where 5T14 is currently. Ignore the intermediate shunt signal.

I tried, from the mixed Shunt-Normal signal (idk the correct name sorry) to the triangle at the end of the platform. Doesn't work, tried that before making that "1/2" of route between the shunt and triangle at the end of the plat

You have to set routes from Main signal to Main signal or exit triangle. The triangular shaped signals are for shunting movements.
Have to read the Wiki? You'll learn a lot by doing so.

Everything that you make will be useful - providing it's made of chocolate.

You are trying from signal 90 and not 92?

Whenever you have a problem like that it is far easier for others to diagnose the problem and suggest a solution if you can upload a saved game, not a screen-grab.

First, cancel the shunt route currently shown; it will conflict with any other route covering the same track. Right-click on the shunt signal to do this.

Then, set a route directly from the signal the train is standing at to the triangle at the end of the platform.
