So just brought this now and have set the route for 5F32 from Lewes towards Newhaven, however I notice after the train has gone over the sections of track you need to set the section of track is still lit up in white and you have to manually cancel the route, is this how its meant to be rather than the route cancelling when the train has gone over it?

Thank you

Yes, there's probably a TORR (train operated route release) option on startup that will allow you to make it easier.

TORR is only provided on Eastbourne panel, (probably) because this is the only box that was provided with it in real life. Lewes wasn't, and all the other boxes are lever frames, which obviously require the signaller to 'cancel' the route by putting the lever back.

Steamer is correct, the only signals in the sim that will cancel the route off are LW92, LW93 (at Cooksbridge) and all main signals at Eastbourne. The updated version (awaiting release) will also remove the current incorrect method of working for the signals at Hampden Park and Wallsend crossings.

You have to get a red before you can get any other colour

Could you possibly elaborate on this "incorrect" method please?

The protecting signals for Wallsend will TORR (with clickable replace lever roundels) and Mountfield Road level crossing at Hampden Park will autoraise if the route is manually reset quick enough.

Both these situations are lever frames and a way of getting the crossings to autoraise with routes proved as used but still set over them has been worked out, so both the above features have been removed on my local version of the sim.
