Is it a known issue that ARS quite often tries to send trains on the down good at this signal when booked for the down tilbury main?

I can dig out a save im sure if need be. Playing the 'LTS Mon-Fri Jan-Feb 2020' Timetable.

Have run a test timetable of one train and it all works as expected.
If line code at Barking is ML the train is sent main (to 619)
If the line code at Barking is GL the train is sent goods (to 807).

If you manually set the opposite ARS reverts to manual (magenta TD)
If you preset & lock the points the opposite way ARS leaves 617 at red.
If you hold 619 red, ARS does not try to route around it (not that it should anyway).

To go further it needs a save that reliably causes the issue, ideally when run hands off.

The path is XX 7 ML from Barking and ARS routes it towards the GL.

The save has the points locked and signal 617 set to auto as you will see.

Hi Chris,

I've seen this before, which is why I tend to collar ground signal UR1116 (Ripple Lane West DGL theatre)!

ARS disregarding platform 1 in the TT and routing Up 2D's to platform 2 is another one my bêtes noires :)

Thanks
Jamie
