Track Section occupied for rather too long. 28/07/2023 at 21:09 #152489

I’m playing the 25th March 2022 timetable.

There’s a section of track on the Scarborough line that has been showing as occupied for rather a long time.

1T19 left York Station at 05:40 enroute to Scarborough so left the sim area shortly afterwards. As can be seen in the screenshot, there’s a section of track which is showing ‘occupied’ with the train’s headcode still on it.
I tried to make this section of track ‘unoccupied’ (at sim time 06:12:47) using F11, but nothing happens, it remains ‘occupied’.
1T19 has also disappeared from the train list, so it has left the sim area.

Shouldn’t this track section have cleared by now?

1T19 is actually 5T19, It was never in the train list.

That's interesting. I’ve double-checked what I did and I have completely miss-read the timetable

What a plonker 🙄

It is as much two rather unfortunate functions of that move.

ARS changes the TD of 5T19 to 1T19 when it arrives in York the first time, although the train in F2 list is still 5T19 until it gets to P2.

Secondly, the 'last sent' towards Scarborough is populated by the shunt move.

Yes. I've just realised that. I have ARS turned off for the station so it was my fault changing the TD.

Anyway, I'm on the re-run now so shall pay more attention to timetables.
