Evening all,
I was just looking at the Bristol area diagram on Railcam.
There seem to be flashing red dots placed around the diagram.
As far as I’m aware they are only on the Bristol page.
Anyone know what they signify?

I believe they indicate routes set, in some way. I don't remember exactly though.

Hi Southern Rover with the medium Railcam use to create our diagrams which we believe look as close to the real thing as possible, we have encountered a problem in to how we can accurately portray routes, this was an early trial to actually show that route info entered actually worked, so orange flashing dots in middle of the track are routes set.
The first trial of this was on the Blackpool North station (Part of Preston diagram) which showed which platform a train was entering.

Thanks for the information.
That’s very interesting and useful too.
