Thank you all for your continued assistance. Following a suggestion made by a member of the Model Railway Club this evening, who has some experience with JMRI, I have tried some further tests with some promising results, although still some inconsistency.

The possible problem that this person identified was that if I remove one of the trains from the track without terminating the Active Train associated with it, JMRI will remember that there is a train on the track somewhere (assuming it to have stalled or similar) and will take this into account, producing erroneous results.

I therefore re-ran the original tests, this time terminating the train that I removed from the tracks before removing it. On this occasion, with the original panel, I did not get the error of the train running around constantly without stopping, but it still stopped dead on entering the final transit.

I repeated the test with the modified panel, and this now seems to work correctly, stopping gradually even with only one train remaining, but there is still a remaining inconsistency: when both trains are on the track, the trains stop further into the final transit than they do when only one train is on the line (and the other has been terminated).? Can anyone offer an explanation as to why this might be?

But a very useful thing that I have now learnt is: do not remove an Active Train physically from the tracks without first terminating it, or else errors are likely to occur.
