PBS <--> Train accident

Hello,

I just had a train accident in my game. I think the cause of the accident was 
some bug (as I didn't touch the line for years before), but that's not my 
point since train accidents happen in reality either, so they are somewhat 
realistic for me.

But: Some of the wagons where located inside a PBS block, some behind it. A 
train was waiting for the destroyed trains being removed. In other words:

=====AwwwBwwwCttt===

where w are destroyed wagons,  t is a waiting train, between A and B is a PBS 
block, C is a one way signal towards B.

Now, the region between B and C was cleared first. The waiting train starts, 
so far ok. But: It reserves a path through the PBS block, (i.e. from B to A) 
although it wasn't cleared yet, instead of waiting at B. So I had the next 
crash between parts of the old, destroyed train and the waiting train...

I can send the savegame/config if needed.

Wolfgang

PS: Thanks for the new irregular station switch ;-)
