Both 1F77 and 1F80 are 116m in length (Cl. 222) entering in the Down direction with stopping position Far End. The combined 232m length of 1C13 (which also departs in the Down direction via Nunnery) probably shouldn't be overlapping the TC in rear if the working length of this platform is 345m as per manual.

Worth noting as well 1F77 and 1F80 join on platform 2 but go past the signal

Mantis 41371 for investigation

Jamie a temporary fix is to FX 1F77

Yes, timetables have to stop. But there is nowhere on the real railway where a train will be booked to berth in the middle of a main line. Logically, it should run until the point where it drops off the SIM.

My over-tidy mind means that I like to finish a SIM with no trains at all on it. For trains that are berthed, I simply abandon timetable and then let them rung forward to the nearest SIM exit point where I let them drop off. But that's just me.

What do you do with trains that terminate within the sim then in real life have a next working which is beyond the scope of the SimSig TT?

Yes you can berth terminating trains but this train should've (I think) carried on to Moorthorpe or Doncaster and the train should still carry on running after the sim has finished

Problem then is the chained Ardsley TT doesn’t have this train as it’s past the end time. I could add it but then I’d end up recessing at MORTHGL instead!

Ah, fair enough. I forgot to say thank you for the timetable, sorry for all the moaning, just wanted to let you know so it can be even better

No worries! All good questions to ask so others can find the answer in future. Glad you’ve enjoyed the TT.
