Sending trains to Alrewas 29/01/2023 at 21:34 #150313

Decided to fire up Derby and while I understand how to receive trains FROM Alrewas following the notes on the wiki

Alrewas
Alrewas requires a slot to send a train, which is given by setting a route from signal SAS5 (which is grey) to signal 78.

Any train booked to reverse behind signal 78 should be signalled towards Alrewas using the white shunt arrow.


However it's not clear on the course of action to take when sending trains TO Alrewas, for example 4M24 on the default 2015 timetable just appears to sit at signal AS1 and not do anything.

What is the process to send trains to them please?

You just set a route from 82 signal to AS1 signal.

There is a sim issue (Fixed in a version currently under test) where a train won't exit at Alrewas if you send it to the shunt arrow associated with AS1.

"Passengers for New Lane, should be seated in the rear coach of the train " - Opinions are my own and not those of my employer

I remember Maxand had this problem back in 2015.

The various responses made very interesting reading.

I've kept the save that Maxand provided but haven't attempted to sort the trains out yet. Will get around to it eventually.

For those not familiar with it, you can read it here: https://www.SimSig.co.uk/Forum/BoardView/86?page=1

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