You must assume that, as soon as you have a double yellow, that you are following another train at a close distance, so slow down as soon as you see anything other than clear.
That signal is poorly sighted 😂 IRL, we treat every red as red even if you might be following something. No harm in braking really early as you get in more trouble for a Spad than a tiny delay. One of our drivers lost his job for exactly what happened in this video, because if that hadn't cleared it would have been a SPAD
What would you have told your manager if they’d downloaded the data for that journey? “Thought I saw a cow in the four foot but it was just a plastic bag” lol

I know that lol, I was assuming the red was just after ealing broadway, obviously if it was real I would've slowed down before

My dad did the same thing on TS classic. We laughed our heads off at how lucky it was.
When I drive steam engines in TSW4 I have been close to pass a signal at danger, but never *That* close.
Great catch by the way📸👍👏👏
Wow, that was lucky.

that is precisely what I would've said
Amazing Video, and Boi that close
Happens all the time in SCR
Luck you were driving a 165, they slow down quite fast, same with the SEH 465
Yes the brakes are pretty good
That was some braking performance though
And that is why you should trust physics
indeed

Close one, Signal changed to yellow just in time
Oh dam and it changed at the last second tho
Yup
Should have slowed at the yellow rookie mistake
yes
SPAD - don't let it happen to you!
