Trying to get an ECS from P4 to New Yard. The only route seems to be via P3. Tried routeing via down main and reversing back thro P3, but TRTS wants me to pull off signal 237. This I did and got the ECS as far as sig 41 on the up main. Again, tried reverse routeing through P3, but train won't shift. It must be possible but I'm stumped just now and any help would be most welcome.

Thanks

I assume you should have put it through P3 in the first place and are now trying to recover from it? If it was scheduled for P4 then there must be a timetable error (which timetable?).

You can press F2 to get into the train control window, select the train, right-click and select "reverse" to get it moving in the Down (left) direction, then do the same again once it's south (left) of Exeter to bring it back into P3. You could also edit the timetable on the fly - in fact a few different ways of doing it.

Hi Peter

Timetable is Beginner - Summer 2006. Train 2C83 Cardiff - Exeter booked into P4 then 5C83 ECS move to New Yard.

I have edited the TT so that 2C83 now arrives/Departs P3.

Thanks again for your help.

Regards

Mike
