Reversing trains in LUL area (Simple) 03/05/2023 at 18:06 #151658

I think the answer to this is 'no', but is it possible to reverse mainline (i.e. Chiltern) trains within the LUL area whilst on the Simplified view? Experiments suggest no, but always worth checking.

With the 'full' version on it is possible to reverse trains at Harrow and Amersham, but there doesn't seem to be a way to send a train into the LUL section and for it to come back out the same end.

TIA.

It wouldn't be possible in simple view as you would practically be blind signalling a train potentially over points as well.

It is not possible in the simplified mode. It is simulated as a set of plain line auto sections instead of the complex junctionwork in the full layout.

As I suspected - thank you. A shame, given that - even when the sim was released - diesel services reversing at Amersham were a regular WTT move, and frequently happens at Harrow during engineering works.

No biggie though, personally I don't understand why anyone wouldn't signal with the premier railway enabled... O:-)
