Junction question

[Richard_Dodge]

I have a question pertaining to junctions. As shown in the Trainz manual, section 12.5.10 "Signaling system". "Move the mouse pointer over the signal and clicking on the signal will transport you to the obstacle etc.

When I do this I get turnout(switch) that is flashing a green arrow! What is telling me? I have done some research and found nothing pertaining to this.

Need some advice about this situation. I working with TRS 2006 with SP1.

Thank you and have a good day.

Well, when you clicked on the signal, it took you to the reason that the signal was red...(I'm assuming that it was red)....the flashing green arrow is telling you the direction of the turn out and that is the reason for the red signal...ie: the obstacle....what you need to do would depend on what kind of session you are running.

Right

That is right. Then you may want to pan out and have a look at the situation where your click on that red signal took you to. Is the point (switch) in the wrong direction? Is there stock on the track you're trying to access? Is track further along that track unsignalled?
There are several things to look for and only you, on that route, can solve them.

I think the flashing green arrow was trying to tell you that the switch was lined in the wrong direction, perhaps it needs to poit the other way for your consist to get to it's destination.
