Possibly a long shot (maybe 2):-
Could it be related to trains that require, or have had, a (5+ char) TD manually interposed with only the first 4 characters, and the ACI not picking up properly on the TD?

No more than a hunch, but might need to be eliminated from enquiries.
Just tested this and there may be some merit to this theory. From my current run-through of 4day TT, 5S06-1 properly updated by ACI in P8. Reloaded save and changed 5S06-1 to 5S06 - ACI does not update TD.

I think Andy's on to something here.

I have observed a few more trains at Moorgate failing to insert automatically, and they were all trains that I would have had to manually interpose at either Welwyn, Hertford or Letchworth after dividing.

I shall make a point of interposing the full headcode from now on and see if this is indeed the problem.

I just took the -1 out of 1A20-1, 1P69-1 and 1C60-1, and all three trains failed to insert on arrival at KX.

Certainly a possibility Andy; I will have a look next time but I seem to remember that I did only interpose the first 4 characters after they left Bowes Park Rev Sdg

I'm currently running through the 2013 TT from the beginning but I'm guessing from other posts that several other fellow SimSiggers out there are already ahead of me.

There may be something in AndyG's suggestion as I virtually NEVER bother to interpose the -x part of a 5 character TD.

An update: First train where ACI fails in the 2013 TT is 3D02-2 from Bowes Park Rev Sdg to Kings Cross P4. When I manually insert 3D02 into the berth for K832 then the ACI fails to function upon arrival at Kings Cross BUT if I manually insert 3D02-2 into the berth for K832 then the ACI functions as expected upon arrival at Kings Cross.

(If 3D02 is manually inserted into the berth for K832 then 3D02-2 is manually inserted into the berth at the London end of P4 after the train is reported as having arrived at Kings Cross then the ACI does not update).
