You can write notes that appear on screen saying uncouple engine from train and go to the siding, pickup the consist and come out and reverse back onto the orginial train.

How can you do this when the points can not be changed by the driver

If the points cannot be changed manually, you will have to use reverse points for each movement. This can make shunting activities very confusing as if you have too many reverse points in a short area MSTS seems to get confused. My advice is keep it simple.

I thought all points where manual in Ballyshannon.

Reverse points. Make sure your in path edit mode then right click on the track. You get a menu.
