Flashing Yellows prior to a junction 22/08/2023 at 16:59 #152937 | |

Something in the Carlisle game that I’m currently playing, got me wondering. 4S90 approaches the junction at Gretna Green where there are flashing yellows when a route is set towards Dumfries. As the junction is occupied by 1E95 travelling from Annan, I am unable to set the route until the junction is clear. When I do so, 4S90 approached the junction with a double yellow, and two single yellows, none of which are flashing. I then re-ran the sim and set the diverging route slightly later and as 4S90 approached the junction, there was a single flashing yellow and then a yellow that wasn’t flashing, which is what I expected. Are both these situations correct and what a driver would expect to see? ..... ![]() ![]() Post has attachments. Log in to view them.

Train was too close to the junction to offer a flashing yellow in the first case. It has to be visible to the driver for a minimum time (can't remember specifics), otherwise it reverts to a regular approach control.

So, in the second screenshot, with signal CE508 directly above 4S90 flashing yellow, the train was far enough away to enable the signal to flash?
