When ecs stock is departing etches park how do I input the headcode.
I put it in the first place 4 ×××× show.
At Barton under need wood the headcode shows automatically.

Also is there a way to speed up the clock at quiet times on the sims.

Thanks

For the clock, you can speed it up for 5 minutes at a time by pressing F, and return to real-time speed by pressing N.

For the headcodes, the place **** shows is usually the first place you can have a headcode. Shunt signals from sidings, like Etches Park, do not have an associated "berth" to store the headcodes in. You can get ahead of the **** showing by pressing I, entering the headcode, pressing Enter and then clicking on the signal where **** usually shows up.

Or right click on the berth and use the context menu to enter the TD directly.

Using '+' and '-' can assist speeding up or slowing the sim down respectively.

No.

A very select number of specific sims (Salisbury, Euston, maybe others) have the capability to show signal numbers and that option is toggled (on/off) with a button on the screen.

Most sims have a PDF signal number diagram available to view or download from their manual on the Wiki which you can print or have open on your computer as an aide-mémoire when you are running the sim.

No, but in addition to the already-mentioned signal plan PDF, you can also see the signal numbers one at a time. The signal number is in the signal’s context menu, shown when you right-click (if Right-Click Cancels Signals is disabled in your options) or shift-right-click (if the option is enabled).
