Buffer Stops

I am using Peco ST-8 Buffer Stops on my layout. For reasons connected with availability of Settrack (and my budget while work is suspended), I have decided to break the trackwork up into layers based on location, rather than my previous preference for splitting it by Control Zones. This will allow me to see what extra track I need to complete the next stage, bearing in mind that I will have some salvaged from my previous layout.

But, when I select a section (by double-clicking), the buffer stop is NOT selected, even though it is attached to the track via a connector. So I have to select each ST-8 and move it to the new layer. It would be far better to be able to do it in one move.

Cheers,

As the buffer has no track, it can't be part of the section.
A triple click selects everything connected, but that is probably too much!

I'll see if there is some other solution.
