The first of what I hope will be an expanding number of sims for which I will write this timetable, using historical realtime data to reflect actual operations on the day as well as a few extras (engineering or freight trains that perhaps ran another day that week).

Any comments, criticisms or deliberate mistake findings welcomed...

EDIT: Download in the Browse Downloads > User Contributed > Timetables > Hereford section, or the link Andy gave below.

I *think* from memory that is the one myself and Nicholas had issues with in testing but thought we had found a work around.

I recall it was a nuisance if the same one!

Given that there is no signal, only, presumably, a fixed distant and a points indicator, I found this strange when it first happened, but very frustrating that it is still not working, and baffling.
My fix the first time was to change 6J88's passing time at Knighton to an arrival and departure time instead (I thought perhaps the need to stop and change tokens might be causing a problem): could you check that your timetable does show this, for 6J88, please?
This must be a sim issue or some interaction between this particular train and the sim, as all others run fine. Would be good if a developer could take a look perhaps.

There is no signal in reality, just points indicators and stop boards.

The way it works in SimSig uses hidden signals which “clear” relative to the position of trains and token calls.

If you set a passing time in the crossing loops the token call probably isn’t generated to clear the signal.

I should apologise, I should have said that 6J88 was reporting points set againts. I re-ran from Llandridnod, adjusted the Tt to show a 2 min stop @ Knighton, and unticked the passing time. That appears to have solved the problem.

Thanks, I will re-check the uploaded version in case (it sounds like) my change to make that happen permanently didn't get saved into that one somehow.
And thanks for playing through the TT, too.
