Hi. Possible bug. Signal 608, which is an automatic, remains red even though the next signal is green. Is this a bug or how things are IRL? Screenshot attached. Dave Post has attachments. Log in to view them. Last edited: 02/05/2017 at 18:48 by DaveHarries Reason: None given Log in to reply |

Same as in the previous version of Peterborough, and steps up to yellow then green with an approaching train, in line with various other examples of approach control.

Am I missing something obvious? Everything that you make will be useful - providing it's made of chocolate. Log in to reply |

Stops a driver seeing a signal on the slow line when they are on the fast and reading it as green when the signal on the fast is red.
