I have now acquired a copy of this and indeed the other exam papers.
So there were only 9 part B questions this year but it was the "headway calculation" rather than the "aspect sequence" question that was "missing".
Other than that I think that the Mock that we used at Signet wasn't far off the mark and the questions we discussed matched pretty well-
Q2: the discussion on flashing aspect sequences would basically have answered the first 2/3rds of this one and we did even touch on PRIs for the last bit
Q6: the first 60% was pretty much one of the questions which we went through in some detail and the last 40% very similar to another one we went through rather quicker
Q8: although not focussed on TCIs explicitly, actually very related to the question on trapping that we did work through- we must have done 50% overall
Q4: again although not quite hitting the nail on the head with this one, we did discuss a question on the effect of raising linespeed on almost all other kinds of level crossings, so actually a lot of common ground
Q5: actually extremely similar to a question on the mock paper (but that we didn't discuss as no one had attempted and we could not do everything).
Hence I award myself at least a Pass for the setting of the Mock paper!
