Running the excellent 1984 v2 TT, I wrongly routed 1S59 0930 Euston - Inverness 'The Clansman' towards Uddingston from Motherwell instead of Mossend, where it is due a loco change, and he took the signal. I know most trains are set up to take diversionary routes without query, but I would have thought in this circumstance the route would have been queried.


Regards,

Phil.

I would have expected the Driver to call in as trains aren't supposed to accept diversionary routes if they are booked to call somewhere on the booked route. It depends how the developer has coded it.

I think Peter said a while back that due to the complexity of the area and the many varied routes trains can take, wrong route code was not provided for every eventuality.
