Am I doing something wrong? I've got the release, points in the correct position but the signal won't clear.

I also couldn't clear the signal fron headshunt on Rhymney North, with everything set correctly so I talked 5Y09 past the signal, and driver reported a COA when arriving into Rhymney platform.

Rhymney Levers Save is current, and Woke up save is when 5Y09 is at Rhymney North GF.

Hm, it was probably made by the Western. I'm told they're a VERY strange bunch of folk.

In all honesty I'm not sure why you've got the South Ground Frame released at all in 220822-005902 sim time 062721 Rhymney Levers.ssg, you don't need it for either of 2Y09 or 5P07.

In WokeUp.ssg 5Y09 which was sat in the headshunt rang to request a token, that was granted, the ground frame operated fine to allow it into the platform

"Passengers for New Lane, should be seated in the rear coach of the train " - Opinions are my own and not those of my employer

Ground frames were commonplace across the whole network, and still are.

The token systems in use in the Valleys was designed by the Great Western Railway and exported throughout the world in various forms. Nothing strange about it, it is a very good and reliable system as long as the operators and maintainers know what they are doing with it.

I did link the quote I was referencing..? I guess it wasn't clear enough that it was not a serious comment.

It didn't work when I tried it. I'll have another go.
