    Having problems with signals where a line or lines diverge at a junction. Whenever I place a junction signal, even on just a samp[le piece of track with a single line diverging with no trains or anything else, signal stays red, i try changing the points - no change. the feathered lights stay illuminated no matter which way the points are set, it appears that the junction signals are just not working at all.

    Thanks for your help Peter, i have taken on board the tutorial videos, what im getting is the following...

    Junction signal stays red and the feather does not change regardless of the point orientation, as you can see this is a sample piece of track with no trains, all the arrows from the signal are facing the correct direction, signal is a 4 aspect F4 T2.

    Looking at the Semaphore you seemed to have placed the markers.
    0 at the Signal, #1 on a route and #2 on another
    Did you define which route goes where by double clicking on the signal and placing numbers in the boxes?

    When you say play scenario are you still in the Edit? You have to run the scenario out of the Edit,ie Freeroam etc.

    I did not think you could run anything when in the editor as you have to hit the Play button?

    You can drive when in the Edit. I click the large orange triangle, lower right. That saves, the screen returns without the menu and you can click on a train and drive. BUT the signals don't always work correctly while in the Edit, you must come out of the Edit and run the scenario for them to work correctly.
