In the timetable "Cardiff Valleys SO 03 09 2016 0000 (as happened)" there is an error in that 5F91 is shown to leave Treherbert sidings later than the onward train that it forms. This leads to an endless loop of phone calls that cannot be closed down.

You need to edit the timetable to make 5F91 run 30 minutes earlier from Treherbert sidings to Treherbert station.

Error fixed.

As the Cardiff series has about 5 different timetables, each of which with 3 different start times, it would be really helpful if you could include the timetable name in the thread title, as it would be a lot easier to fix.

Out of interest, what do you mean by "Endless Loop of Phonecalls"? From whom, what do they say? A train that has not entered sim shouldn't be causing phone calls, so a bit more information would make it a lot easier to diagnose the bug...

Sorry guys, I am in the business of making people wait!

Well, as you see, I explained what to do to resolve the bug myself.

What do I mean by an endless loop of phone calls?

Well, this is what happened to me:

At 07:34, 5F91 appears in the berth at Treherbert Sidings. At this stage 2T00 is at Treorchy, travelling to Treherbert.

At 07:35 message says driver of 2T00 requesting token Treherbert to Ystrad (R). "Select your reply." But there is no reply offered. The telephone message symbol continues to flash endlessly, and there is no option to respond to it.

If you ignore it, other conflicts arise (2T00 appears at Ystard (R) in platform towards Porth, but has changed to 2F09 in the train list; token is still out showing “Going to Treherbert” and 5F91 is still shown waiting in Treherbert sidings, and “stopped at signal TH3” in train list. Phone call symbol still flashing with no reply message available.

If you delete 5F91 using Extreme Measures then you get an endless loop of phone calls from "[none]" with still no option to respond. I looked ion the train list just in case "none" was quoted, but it wasn't.
