I've noticed that some of the ECS movements at Northampton don't show up which blocks platforms as some of these services say "Waiting for joining train 5***". Any feedback on this would be great.

Which timetable, which trains? Without that information you've asked a "how long is a piece of string" question.

All the trains are in the timetable. You didn't adjust the timetable start time when you started the game, did you?

You're not making it very easy are you. 00:00 start or 04:45 start?

Did you start with the default TT start time (00:00 or 04:45 depending which TT you chose) or did you pick your own start time?

If you picked your own start time, the trains will not appear as they are seed trains in the TT and will enter at the start time of the TT. If you start at any other time the trains are not seeded so you will never see them.

00:00, default start time

Next question. Did you pick the TT from the list presented before loading the sim or did you start the sim then open the TT from within the sim?

That'll be the problem. By opening the timetable after starting the simulation, the seed trains (trains already in the area at the TT start time) won't appear. You should always select the timetable when starting a new game.
