    Approaching Euston on line A, any TPWS equipped train will brake when passing the last signal before entering the station, regardless of speed or signal. Go to 1:10 in the video below.

    FYI - I reported this problem to the Help Desk - which I assume you have also done

    "Posted on: 15 December 2020 08:22 PM NEW
    The last signal before Euston Station on Line A, WM488, causes a TPWS Application (I Assume) when you pass the signal showing a Single Yellow with a Platform Indication.

    A Quick Drive from Watford on the Pendolino was spoilt by the Emergency Brake Application - speed was around 35 on a 40 MPH stretch

    I tried a Free Roam with both the Pendolino and the Voyager with the same result
    Even passing the signal with a Single Yellow and P4 at 10mph causes an Emergency Application.

    Thanks"

    The more people report it officially the better chance of a fix
