Spelling Checker

Greetings,

Shunt Signals

I am hoping that in SigScribe10 there will be provision for route indicators on shunt signals. SigScribe4 4 does not. Also in British practice there is a different signal for calling on and for shunting; on SigScribe4 I use the shunt arm option whatever I intend to model on my own layout simply to g...

altering frames

Original railway frames had spare levers to allow for alterations. Further, if neccesary, additional locking trays could be added as required.

For modellers, though, why not add a separate frame for another part of the layout? This would not necessarily mean more operators.

Shunt limits, sidings and unworked points.

In the real world signal diagrams include siding or shunt neck ends, platform position, marks or words denoting direction of movement, and unworked or 'hand points' as used by shunter staff. I should like to see SigScribe10 incorporate these, with unworked points free of interlocking such that they ...

RE: SHUNT SIGNALS

In my experience shunt signals should not be limited only by limit of shunt signals and other signals but also line or siding ends. Further in British practice there were yellow shunt disc signals which would permit shunting movements over points in the normal position when on and over points revers...

conditional interlocking

Unfortunately I was unable to open the pdf file you gave a link to. British Rail frames had interlocking tables for the locking fitter to work to. I am familiar with these diagrams for checking conditional locking. I am not referring to the dog chart just the table which says which lever locks anoth...

Triangle signalling

Greetings, I too have come across the problem of signalling a triangle. One can make a reasonable representation by bending the top over and placing a shunt signal for the facing movement over the points. Since it is to be used for reversing a loco and no other movements I hope that the exit signals...

use of version 1.2.1b13

Hi,

I have just downloaded version 1.2.1b13 and there is no HELP file attached so I have no idea where to start. Should I have downloaded a previous version first and if so where do I find it?
