1696 posts 		In the attached screenshot, it looks to me that 8D51 has no onward journey.
Am I correct and if so could it be removed from the sim to provide a bit more space in this area?
If the answer is yes, you'll see that there is also 4E75 which could also be removed.

Edit: For some reason I didn't input the 4th train's ID in the scratchpad. I've now done that so the scratchpad is up to date

Unfortunately I can't identify that exact location as I can't see the word Railport anywhere in the layout. It looks like I mistakenly thought this is where it is. Please would you mind explaining where the Railport is. Thanks.

Hi Bugsy, please see attached.


You need to set the points to reverse by using the controls in the Up Decoy Shunter box. Then ask for the slot, which is just below D1418 signal. Then route from D1405/D1408 to the grey arrow. If you're on the ESL line you need to set D231 to D1405.

Hope this helps

Yes thanks Craig. Now that you have pointed it out, I can see exactly where the Railport is and for the life of me can't understand why I couldn't see it in the first place.

Thanks very much.

1696 posts 		Blast. I've just realised that the other two trains in the Up Decoy Yard should also be in the Railport, one of which seeded at 00:00.
This now means that I'll be starting all over again.
Oh well. Who cares. I've learnt quite a bit so will now put that knowledge to good use
