    Hi all

    I've been pondering over the signalling aspects received when leaving Salzburg sidings for Freilassing in the International Aid freight scenario with the BR185. I'm not sure if there's an issue here or not, so I thought I'd ask the German / Austrian signalling experts in here what they think.

    On leaving Salzurg the train is signalled right across the layout towards ZS signal S971 on the rightmost (usual) track. A standalone Vr1 signal is encountered on the track used by the train, but there is also a Vr1 signal on the track NOT being used.

    Both of these Vr1 signals are repeating the aspect of S971 (out of view, but which is showing Hp1+Vr1), so they are not displaying incorrect aspects. But I can't help wondering whether, in real life, the rightmost Vr1 should be unlit, or at least showing Vr0. The rightmost track is not clear of course, but equally no route would be signalled towards it from Salzburg until the conflicting move is completed. Perhaps this sort of thing is common practice, and I've just not seen it in-game before?

    All thoughts welcome! Screenshot and map pasted here:

    Actually, I've just found a cab ride video from 2015 (play from 2:59), and it does look like the Vorsignal for the fouling route (the one that the points are not set for) is suppressed / unlit.
