It seems whenever I am operating an activity which has reverse points and I make an uncalled for reverse move between specified reverse points, I always loose my lineup somewhere along the route ahead and end up facing a perpetual red signal. Are extra reverse moves no matter how small not allowed?

I have found the same thing to be true. I don't know the answer but they sometimes work and sometimes not. My guess is that the path has been set and if you change direction it will loose control of the path logic.onerailrat

My experience has been that MSTS appears to remember where you are on the "path". So If you deviate, you have return to the point of deviation and resume in the original direction of the path and the Track Monitor will pick up the path where you left it.Regards,
