You might be doing it in the wrong place. These are the steps I use:

1. Signal the incoming freight train to Signal 212, which is on the Down Goods, to the left of the 'Washwood Heath No.1' label.
2. Set a route to signal 458 on the U&D Camp Hill Through Siding.
3. When the loco has detached and has moved to the Camp Hill siding, wait for a gap in main line traffic and set a route to signal 447 (on the Down Main, underneath the 'Washwood Heath No.1' label, then to signal 221 on the Down & Up Goods.
4. Wait for another gap in main line traffic and set a route back to 212.
5. Wait for the loco to join and the driver phoning up to say he's waiting at a red signal.
