Firstly, I need to ask a question and then have some comments. 2O66 stopped at signal 299 prior to it entering Luton P2. Unfortunately, I can’t remember whether I clicked on the yellow arrow or the signal at the end of the platform. The question is, which action is correct? Anyway, the train stayed behind signal 299 and the driver phoned to say that he was held at a red signal. I authorised him to pass the signal at danger which he duly did. However, I then received a call to say that ‘no obstruction had been found’. As I didn’t ask him to examine the line this call seems a bit odd. …………… OS: Windows 10 Home 64bit Loader: SimSig Loader version 5.19; Sim: Simulation West Hampstead; data version 1.11 License: Dynamic license in use TT: West Hampstead 15th Oct 2009 v4.8.0 TT filename: West Hampstead 15th Oct 2009.WTT TT merged: False Sim upgrade: False Loader upgrade: False Save reloaded: True NNORMAL active at start NNORMAL choice 1 NHARD choice 2 NERA2009 active at start NTORR active at start NTORRON active at start  Post has attachments.

First off, to use permissive working, you must set the route from signal to signal, *not* using the "reduced overlap" option. Additionally, there must be no route set from the exit signal. You can use "reduced overlap" to reduce the lag between a departing train and the entry of a following one. Secondly, you most likely selected "Examine the line and pass signal at danger" from the phone dialogue. It's right next to the "Authorise to pass signal at danger" option in the list, so it's easy to mis-click. Log in to reply |

Regarding your second point, I'm not convinced that you are correct, but what can I say? Everything that you make will be useful - providing it's made of chocolate. Log in to reply |
