I am experiencing a similar problem with 6L75/0L75. I get it into Long siding 1 OK, by signalling B1 hand signal, that then goes green, but B points are still locked due to loco allegedly on top. so it is now stuck. I have tried changing direction back to Dn and asking it to shunt forward. But the Dn changes back to Up before I have chance to ask it to shunt. Anyone got any ideas? Edit: I have just restarted the Sim from a snapshot, and put 6L75 into Long Sdg 2, and this time OL75 has cleared points B and run round.

Tried a new session and 6l75 did the exact same thing again. The logo stubbornly refuses to detach. Post has attachments. Log in to view them. Log in to reply |

The TT shows that the train has a NX23 (near end exact). You need to clear the S1 hand signal at the B end of the run round. The train will shunt forward slightly then start detatching. Once detached, the loco will again shunt forward and then you can start the run round process.

I had similar issues with everything cleared as it should be. When the loco detaches, it doesn't move far enough and sits on the points. Setting "far end" stopping position for it at "PF Long Sidings Pts B" solves the problem.

It would be really handy if you could all provide your snapshots for this. I've spent a good couple of hours on this this morning and could not replicate it. However, I have found something with the B S1 handsignal. When you have the points indicator at red as per the pictures provided. Could you please try and right click the B S1 hand signal and report back after the loco has detached (Along with your save files). Once the loco detaches it automatically draws forward to the Long Sidings B-1. This is the correct position. At this point, do the above right clicking of B S1. If I've recreated this correctly, you should now be able to swing the points. This would be really helpful to allow us to fully investigate this.

Right clicking B S1 does nothing. Loco still not detached

Loco still not detachedGood afternoon OK, So with this you need to pull off B S1 signal, then train will draw forward until the NX23 (near end exact 23m) condition is met and the loco will then detach and after detatching will draw forward and await for the points to be thrown to carry out the run round.

Well, it detached, but it appears to be fouling the points. This just feels like a bug man. Either make the train shorter and less troublesome or at least FULLY DOCUMENT a series of moves that actually works. Log in to reply |

TylerE in post 160773 said:Well, it detached, but it appears to be fouling the points.Can I ask what version of the loader you are using? Did you update to the latest (V5.35)? I don't know if it has any connections with it, but as I wrote earlier, I had the same problem when I started the timetable, but it was still with the earlier loader version. When I now tried to recreate the problem to provide a save for Hap, with the new version on, everything worked as it should. Log in to reply |

Hi. I have 6M91 arrived in the DGL at Earls Sidings. WAG1 and WAG2 are dropped off in Nos 1 and 2 R/R respectively. What is intended to happen then? I think The loco and remaining wagons draws back into the DGL and awaits the works loco to remove WAG2 an WAG1 so that the R/R can be filled with WAG3 & WAG4. Is that correct?

Craig, I now the same problem with 6E17/0E17. Train draws into line 1. Loco uncouples. Green signal to leave line 1 and draw forward clear of points B. Points B set for line 1. Loco will not draw forward far enough to release the points B and reverses direction, remaining at a stand. If I manually reverse it, I eventually get a message saying points set against train, which of course they aren't. File attached of 2000 and about 2005. Post has attachments. Log in to view them.

John 23 in post 160854 said:Craig,Evening John. I can see what is happening after looking at the debug area of the sim. The loco has moved and is waiting to turn back. The reason why the F roundel is showing red is because the B S1 hand signal has been set again. Now it won't go green becuase the section is occupied by the loco and that's why it's being missed. If you go from your 2000 save and do the normal procedure. Watch the loco move away on the f2 train list after detaching, it will wait until 2001 to depart long sidings. You do not need to set the route for it again because it's already came in and passed the signal, It will draw forward on it's own accord. It will then be saying stopped at PF Long Sidings Pts B IN. At this point you should have a White F roundel on the B end, if not then right click S1 on the B end. This will cancel the route. The roundel should now go white. I'll speak with the Developer about this operation of this and see if we can inhibit the route being called when section ahead occupied. I've attached some screenshots of the route being called and pulled. You can see when called that the route strip is lit. I hope this clears it up for now. Thanks Craig    Post has attachments.

just had 6E17 uncouple as normal , gave hand signal out, switched points to line 2 on b and a no prob, but loco stuck at a. decided to just set signal from long to the rmc works like you do in wagns cement thing, handsignal out from 2. It works. then change points to a and signal in again. Note DS at totley dore has no grey exit triangle or shunt single into it or shunt from the line to dore across to the other shunt to get into ds. There is a signal to get out of DS! all other DS at edale etc have grey exit triangle and shunt signals. Perhaps missed? Thanks John Rowley Log in to reply |
