How Do I Change The Vochtem (HGK) - Bruhl Block Direction?

[pblanksb]

I am running the Rheingold 1996 timetable. At around 0700 I offered train 26409 (I think) to Vochtem and signalled it normally. At 0855 Vochtem called me, offered me train 26410 which I accepted. Vochtem called me shortly afterwards asking me to change the block direction, but there is no direction arrow nor a button to press in association with the EaGT button. How do I change the block direction? I've looked through the manual but I didn't see anything. I tried clearing the signal onto the main line hoping that would do it automatically but it doesn't.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Regards,

Phil.

Hi Phil,

I don't have this simulation but I've looked in the German forum to find an answer for your problem.

But I'm sorry, there is none actually. Normally the change of the block direction should work automatically.

This problem existed already before and as I understand it was solved at that time. But the last entry on May 04, 2014 says that it has popped up again.

By the way, do you run a new started or a saved version? Saved versions cause certain problems in some simulations.

Thanks for your reply Helmut.

I've just had a look in the German forum and I can see others are having a similar problem, but it can be worked around by starting a new sim after a train has gone to HGK and before the next train is due to depart HGK.

It happens for me if I run a new or a saved version.

Thanks again,

Phil.
