Found what I think is an issue with Crediton and the REV @ Crediton North.

Train coming from Exeter (DN), and TT has a stop in Crediton DN platform then next location is REV @ Crediton North followed by Crediton UP Platform
When train stops in platform it changes from a DN train to an UP Train.

In order to get around this the train has to have a PASS time at Crediton, this then results in a TT error being recorded, saying the train has a Passing Time at Crediton when its Reversing

So now the train goes through Crediton on the DN and to REV@Crediton North, but it doesn't stop, it goes to signal CN12 then moans.
You have to REVERSE the train and step up the timetable.

Can somebody confirm that this is a bug please.
I have the TT available, you just need to start it at 0600 and watch 5B05

Thanks

Exeter to Crediton is UP not DN. The top platform at Crediton is the UP line, so any train arriving there shouldn't be changing its direction from DN to UP.
Just guessing here, but reading your comments on the movements I think the timetable has its UP and DN transposed for this activity.
The train should arrive at the UP platform, then you should set the route to CN12 then back into the DN platform for the run back to Exeter.

Exeter to Crediton is DOWN
As its technically a continuation of the line which comes from Waterloo (the Southern)

A trains coming FROM Crediton is going UP and would continue onto the Honiton Section in the UP direction as well.

Living in the area, I can guarantee that the line from Exeter - Crediton is the DOWN direction as it was operated by the Southern Region. The Atlantic Coast Express (ACE) used the line as well as the local services from Exeter - Barnstaple/Ilfracombe and Bideford.

Ahh, OK. My mistake.
I'm running the Exeter 2012 Airshow & Olympics timetable at the moment.
If you route a train from Exeter to Crediton it says it is running in the UP direction as it approaches Newton St Cyres.
I have just run 2F35 into the lower platform at Crediton from Barnstaple and it says it is running in the UP direction.
2F35 has just passed NstC heading UP. It has passed the distant signal heading DN.
Reversed it back to NstC heading UP. At NstC it changed to DN again.
It seems passing the distant signal 15R4 triggers the switch.
Confusing, isn't it.
I think I'll just shut up in future!
