Just reversed 0L001 behind 18, the line of white light only extended one section, and when the loco reached P1 Long the red light also included the switch reverse. I take this to mean that there was not route locking-* in place for the route all the way into the platform. At the very least, a bug.

*-U.S. term (sorry)

Oops, yes. Clearly deficient signalling engineer when commissioning platform 0 (me).

Route locking is the correct term in the UK too. In fact everywhere I know!

Thanks!

Also I remember that there used to be Automatic working on 454, for the straight route.

Now I can't get auto working for any possible route.

Just backed 0E43 onto 5E43 from K18 using the preferred route (ie not using via button A) and the route failed to drop. Guessing this maybe related to the issue discussed above.

Also 18 didn't cancel automatically after 0L001 had proceeded to P1. I guess this could well be an automatic consequence of the above, otherwise is presumably connected.
