Forgive me if I appear to be a bit dumb (no rude or derogatory comments please), but I can’t work out what you’re supposed to do with the S49 Jn Protection release at Dore South Junction. I’ve looked through the manual and can’t find anything, nor in the Forum (unless I missed it), but I thought that I had seen something in the past, although that might just be a figment of my imagination. Thanks for any help offered 😊 ....  Post has attachments. Log in to view them. Everything that you make will be useful - providing it's made of chocolate. Log in to reply |

Quote:"S49 junction protection release" is a useful control when you have a train on the Dore Curve waiting to go up towards Tapton Junction. The overlap at signal 48 remains locked but can be released using this control. The track circuit through the Dore Tunnel must have been occupied for two minutes, and there must be no route set from signal 52 to 48 (locking underneath the train on the curve is okay). Left click on the white circle to initiate the release. Nothing will happen if the conditions to release are not met.From the manual. Log in to reply |
