I've noticed that 200m long trains at New Malden P1 on the Up Slow overhang the points but 10 coach trains of 200m fit easily inside the station in real life.

Wimbledon sim was written prior to the Wessex 10 car project; so the sim is correct to the drawings used at the time, albeit now out of date.

I've done some digging and the platform was lengthened at the London End by approx 50m, with W206 signal relocated in the process.

As that's a relatively trivial change that wouldn't break pre- 10 car timetables; I've put a suggestion to the developer that the signal and TC joint are permanently moved towards London by 50m in line with some of the other 10 car fudges done on both Wimbledon and Feltham sims.
