I'm attempting to timetable a through service on the Falmouth branch (2000 era), I am testing the train just to check it is actually possible to run to time as it's all custom. The driver is 'Held by conditions' on platform 2 and isn't calling the box for the branch staff. The train is booked to stop at Truro, not sure what could be wrong. Bug perhaps? I have pulled off the platform starter on time and it made no difference. (The train was stopped for almost 5 minutes with the starter ON, driver again made no attempt to obtain the staff.

Could this be looked into, ta'

A saved game would be a big help for anyone trying to work out what is happening.

DN trains don't seem to register passing Probus on both the timetable viewer and F2 menu (2000 era) Tested with location reporting set to 'always'

Adding onto this, I have just figured out that BECAUSE the train never 'passes' Probus (despite it arriving at Truro) the driver gets confused and isn't expecting the staff yet. If, in the F2 menu 'run to another timetable' is selected and forced to 'arrive' at Truro. The branch staff works as intended.

Confirmed, down trains do not "see" Probus in the 2000 era.
