Playing the Shrewsbury sim I encountered an issue with 1G07 seemingly being far too long for platform 4 at Shrewsbury which obviously wouldn't be the case.

It was late coming in from Welshpool and the service it joins to (2J44) was already waiting in platform 4.

Once they had joined, 1G07 called me up asking for authority to proceed, before moving off towards English Bridge where it then found points set against train. The remedy was to manually reverse it back into Platform 4 (where it now fit) and then change direction again to set it off down towards Wellington.

Not sure if I did something wrong in Platform 4 with the arrival of 2J44 to maybe cause this?

Suspect that because 2J44 arrived first it is too far along the platform for 1G07 to fit as well.

I would recommend loading your save paused, open F2 Train List, reverse direction on 2J44 (ensure facing down), tell 2J44 to shunt forward, tell 1G07 to shunt forward (already facing down), unpause, then once 1G07 is fully 'on' the platform tell 2J44 to reverse again (facing up) and they should both happily join without any further intervention.

Hope this helps.
