This train has just arrived onto the Goods Line at Newark from the Retford direction. It should then reverse and travel towards Boulthan Jn. and Lincoln.
There is a phone call from the driver who says that he is waiting at signal D72. As the train is meant to travel in the opposite direction, the route for which has been set, isn't this a bit odd.
Furthermore, it looks to me as though there isn’t a power unit at both ends of the trains so upon reversing, it will be going backwards??

Am I confused do you think :/

I think you are! You've run a full days TT and not twigged that Barkston Jn is south of Newark?

Oh dear. Have I completely misread the timetable? If that's the case I've obviously had one of my 'senior' moments because I do actually Know where Barkston East Junction is having had a few minor issues there with train TDs.
I will have to run my own save and see where I went wrong.

Thanks to both of you for pointing it out.
