7G15 awaiting crew change - it's just not happening 08/12/2019 at 21:54 #122153

I’ve had Train 7G15 sitting at Moira West Junction for over 45 minutes awaiting a crew change which, according to the timetable was due to take place at about 16:10.
It’s now 16:28 and the crew change hasn’t taken place even though the crew were ready to board at 15:40.
It looks like something is amiss.
I have numerous saves (every 10 minutes) but am not sure which one to provide - one at 15:40 when the train arrived at Moira West JN, or a much later one?

In the screenshot of the TT, the train does not appear to have reached Moira West Jn.
Could you post your 1530 and 1540 snap shots please and I'll have a quick look

Ah. Is it because the timetable hasn't stepped up? Would that solve the issue?

Yeah it seems that the train hasn't stepped up at Mantle Lane TC. From the 1530 save, if you step the TT up to Moira West Jn, Then the train will stop at MW1147 signal and preform the crew change there. In the 1540 save as the train is already past where the location of Moira West Jn, the train would need stepping up to the following location.

There seems to be an underlying issue with the routes from Bardon Hill to Lounge Jn not stepping up correctly.
Incidentally, did you have any issues with either 8E85 or 8E86? (8E85 looks like it entered around 0950 and 8E86 entered around 1250)

Trains entering from almost every entry point on the line to Leicester need their TT stepped up past the first point. This also applies to trains entering from Nadins, and trains from Bardon Hill when passing Mantle Lane.

I don't recall having any issues with either 8E85 or 8E86. This may be because if their timetable didn't step up, I did it manually via F2. I did this with several other trains but hadn't done that with 7G15 before it reached Moira West Junction.
I'll run the sim again from 15:30.

Thanks for looking into it. I'll make sure that I step up a timetable when it's necessary.
