I stumbled across a couple of problems involving ECS trains around te Edinburgh area. One is 5S61 which is programmed to enter Craigentinny from the east. In this session, I was not permitted to signal the train into the depot - even though a slot was given!

Later (about 20:30ish), 5A41 was departed off Craigentinny for Plat 1 at Waverley. THe train was not due to depart Waverley til about 04:30. Shortly after arrival in Waverley, the TRTS is activated for 5A41 at the east end.

Possible answers please?

From memory Craigentinny East slot is an exit slot so maybe if you clicked on it and thus authorised an exit it maybe prevents a route in being set. I can't honestly remember how it's coded but that sounds plausible.

By 04:30 do you mean 28:30? because if it is 04:30 then that was 16 hours or so previous.

Craigtenny #3 and #4 require a slot to set a route into them.

I am talking about accessing Craigentinny from the east - Millerhill direction.

With regard to 5A41, it departed the depot at 20:30 - a whole 8 hours early!

And was my Craigentinny suggestion correct?

Re 5A41 which timetable are you using? The one that came with the Sim has 5A41 entering at 04:30 not 20:30
