Is there a rule or set of rules I can set in a session for a train to emergency stop in driver mode if it passes a red signal?

This is a built-in rule called SPaD or Signal Passed at Danger.

Your AI will trigger a SPaD and go into emergency, requiring the driver to wait 2 minutes before proceeding.

The builtin automatic SPAD only applies to AI controlled trains (AFAIK).

There is a Signal Passed At Danger Rule that I use for driver (manually) controlled trains but it does not apply an automatic stop and wait, you have to do that with the rules you add to the SPAD rule. An example can be seen at http://online.ts2009.com/mediaWiki/...xample_2:_Event_Counter_and_Message_Selection

I am looking for a setup where if I pass a signal at Danger, my train automatically stops.

If memory serves me right, a rule called PTP Signal/Speed rule used to do that for manual trains. Not sure whether it's in T:ANE though (I last used it in TS12).

A simple example of that would be:-

Signal Passed at Danger Check Rule - set to trigger every time a train passed a STOP signal.

Driver Schedule Rule - indented as a child rule set to your manually controlled driver, using "Killer" style (so its commands overwrite any existing driver schedule) and then with a simple "Halt Train" as the only command in its schedule list.
​

You have to specify the driver for the Driver Schedule Rule and there is no way I know of identifying and only halting the driver responsible for an individual SPAD (AI controlled trains should not pass a signal at danger).

What Shane suggests works for me. I can't find the rule anywhere outside of TRS12. Had to extract it into TANE. Why is such a useful rule not also included with TANE?

The 'PTP Signal/Speed Rule' is available at the DLS.
