Greetings,

For the host run by Alex_Idos on 10th November I was on Leamington Spa & FC. Early on in the game I had one train - 2K01 - in Platform 4 and the unit which formed 2D02 was supposed to go into the same platform.

The platform in question was Platform 4 and I accordingly put the unit for 2D02 into P4 as per the WTT. The two units combined at 153m length and the manual shows P4 as being 190m so that shouldn't be an issue. However as can be seen from the attached screenshot I ended up with 2D02 overhanging the points. The situation was solved by a shunt move which put 2D02 into Platform 2.

Sounds like a bug with the platform.
Dave

Or more likely with the stopping position of the first train in (not running to the blocks?). P4 TC is 212m long.
I can only help one person a day. Today's not your day. Tomorrow doesn't look too good either.

How to report an issue

At the very least, the timetable in use would be helpful.

It was a modified version of the 2009 timetable.
I have recreated it with the official 2009 timetable in the attached saves.

2K01 divides from the rear of 2V06, which seeds at signal LN123.
2D02 is the next working of 2L81 from Stratford-upon-Avon.

It looks like 2V06 needs to seed further from the signal so that there is enough room left after it departs.

Two saves are attached, one at 06:29 just before 2V06 departs, the other at 06:40 as 2L81 approaches Leamington Spa.

Indeed so Geoff but I was not the host so I didn't know what timetable is in use. :)

Looks like seeding / dividing from the wrong point

That would have made two of us... kind of hard to investigate something when there are multiple unknowns.
