US1 Siding, 8D08 and 9T25 Train Lengths?? 14/10/2024 at 20:27 #158854

In the 1981 timetable I have a train (8D08) in the US1 siding at the Up Decoy Yard. Its length is 146m
9T25 is scheduled to enter the same siding from Potteric Carr Jn. Its length is also 146m.
The siding has a length 0f 455m.

When 9T25 enters the Up Decoy yard, its timetable disappears (Screenshot) and it would appear that the Yard track circuits have frozen in the 'occupied' state.

I don’t understand what has happened. is it something that I have done wrong??

I can provide the Technical details if necessary.

There are two instances of 9T25 here. The 9T25 that has no timetable when loading the save was 9T25/239T25C40 which detaches 0T31/230T25C05 and then Berths in US3. The other 9T25 is 9T25/239T25C41 which detaches 0T25 and Berths in US1. 8D08/168D08C01 is currently in US1 and needs to join 0T31/230T25C05 before allowing 9T25/239T25C41 into US1. I have attached a save with 9T25/239T25C41 held at an appropriate signal so you can do the move with 0T31/230T25C05.

It's been caused because you let the second 9T25 in before having 8D08 depart.

Thanks for the save.
I'll load it up and see how I get on, but not before the 26th October as I've got a holiday in Lanzarote to contend with first.

I'll also take note of what you said.
