Senarion: Local passenger train to Finnentrop

You are instructed to "Wait at Pletenburg for Intereggio to pass".
Approaching Pletenburg, the only place to get out of the way for a pass is an adjoining trailing siding that must be backed into.
Even at a slow speed you cannot clear the switch to back into the siding before your air is tripped and spilled, ending it.
There are no points before this to get out of the way.
I've already had the Intereggio crash into the back of my local at high speed.
What does the scenario writer want from me?

Hi,

Is this one of the default scenarios that came with the game, or is it a 3rd party scenario? I'm not too familiar with the Hagen Siegen.

Did you maybe pass any red signals on your way up to the place where the dispatcher messes it all up? If you passed a red signal (properly ran it over, not the TAB-permission one), this can easily mess up the AI traffic's and your paths.

However, I think that some old scenarios may have gotten broken with the TS2012 update, so maybe this is what happened here too (just speculating). At least that happened to several of my scenarios, so I assume it could have happened on the Hagen Siegen route too. I can't imagine any scenario author would actually schedule a passenger train to do a reverse move into a siding, especially on a route like Hagen Siegen where so many stations have at least one extra platform.

Cheers,
Michael

Yes, I agree.
No red signals passed.
No cues to tab.
If I could proceed past the fail point, I could transfer to another track at the station.
It is a default route.
Looks like a scenario with a bug.
I wonder Just how many "buggy" scenarios accompany this product?
A product that costs should be relatively free of bugs.

They are working on all known bugs, they will be fixed out eventually, with the change over and everything that was released before hand they have alot of work to be done. Rome wasn't built in a day as they say, so updates and big fixes will roll around eventually, just need to have a little patience.
My scenarios are short, but they leave plenty of room for scope. Time to stretch to other routes I think

Rushing a product to market with insufficient testing is unethical.
