Stopped train at red light

I have a stopped train at a red and red flashing light. The light says there is a direction marker facing the wrong way up stream. Is there a way to have it show you where its at?

UGH! The one main reason I never use those.,
The problem with those is once a junction opens it changes the entire line in which it faces.
So, placement could be anywhere so it's best to use those on a secluded yard or branch line that will not effect the entire route...
 
I remember having trouble with a light on a tutorial not letting me into the yard at the end of the tutorial, and someone told me how I could tell what was keeping it from changing. Problem is, I don't remember what it was, and it was years ago. Maybe right-clicking the light and getting properties, or maybe a key combo? I can't remember. Maybe someone here knows. and I can put it in my notes!

I already know that. Thats why I know it's a direction marker. You just place your mouse on the light, and it tells you but thanks anyway.
 
I suggest your issue is between that signal and the next otherwise the train would have advanced to the next signal. When driving use Map View with markers and signals enabled to try to spot it. Alternatively place an additional signal a short distance ahead of where the train is currently stopping and see if the train will advance towards it. Keep moving that additional signal forward along the route until the train will not move, you have just passed your problem. Peter
