Also attached is a pre-issue save, in case that is of help.

Edit: there's a couple of typos in the sim messages:
"Bangor Line - Gaerwen Clear has been requested"
"Penmaenmawr Line - Bangor Clear has been requested"

Once I'm home later ill look into the issue with 2H05

I was just about to post exactly the same thing! I've reproduced it and found the same as Danny, although I'm looking at it right now and my 2H05 hasn't reached TAE10 (the points TC), it's accelerating away at 13mph and TAE4A (the platform TC) has just lit up.

Just to confirm the following sequence of events takes place?


  1. Train is routed in the platform.

  2. The Up end point track circuit illuminates.

  3. The train then disappears of the screen.

  4. The train then reappears on the screen once it has departed Abergele & Pensarn. (On the platform track circuit)

  5. The down end point track circuit works as expected?

1461 posts 		That's how it goes. Just to make triple sure we're all on the same page, the platform TC only lights up when the train is over the Down End points - it doesn't light when it's on the Up End points (that's pretty much what you said, but I hadn't checked the Up End points until now)

Thanks to everyone for your accurate reporting.

4869 posts 		Thank you both for the accurate bug reporting. I've fixed the issue. Basically there is a combined track circuit in the platform, I had set the sim up only to show one of the two track circuits and not both.

Online 		Just to say also, 'Abergele' is spelt incorrectly on F2.
