    Hi!

    I just noticed something after turning Gordon around at Vicarstown. The break van of the express ist at the end of the train from Knapford to Vicarstown. As a result, after turning Gordon around at Vicarstown, the break van is at the the front of the coaches. The problem is that there is a red light at the end of the break van which signalizes the end of the train. While taking the train back to knapford, there’s only a regular coach at the end of the train and also no red light to indicate the end of the train. Wouldn’t train staff in real life manually hang the red light on the other side of the train before returning?

    This issue arises with all trains in sodor I’ve noticed so far that travel back a forwards (passenger trains on the mainline, Percy’s passenger train from the harbor to Ffarquhar, …)

    Kind regards,

    Phil
