Leaving the bay platform, there's a short stretch wrong-way on the

taking the crossover.

I believe this is the correct scenario to have triggered the level of
concern and a formal notification to RAIB.

Indeed. You would have thought the signal allowing trains out of the bay
platform would be interlocked to the points being set correctly for the
route over the crossover, wouldn't you?
