If anyone's interested, @stagecoach sent me a private message offering his help. He briefly explained that the solution to the problem of "two trains traveling one after the other in the same direction in a long single-track section" is to split the paths and use exclusive sections. Since I'm...
Thanks for the answer, basic operation is working so far. With your help one train travels from A to B while the second train waits from B to A in the single-track section also across multiple sidings and a "lot" of traffic. It also works well for a following train to take the second track on a...
Now I have another question about achieving somewhat automatic operation. What do I need to configure so that two trains can travel in the same direction on a single-track section with four blocks? The passing sidings at both ends of the single-track section work automatically and only release...
Thank you Stagecoach, the tip about the green path trigger helped me, now it runs with one train in a continuous loop. How can I get the train to stay on the main line instead of using the siding? It seems as if the train is traveling along the tracks as they were laid? If he goes north he takes...
Just can't seem to get the interlocking thing right. I've built a small diagram: single track, two passing places which replicates a railway layout. The whole thing should work endlessly, always going from A to B and back and then starting again. Attached is also the test route...
You are right Jack, it is my attempt to recreate the area there. Actually it doesn't look that exciting. It's just a port somewhere in BC, compared to LA, Long Beach, Oakland, Seattle and Vancouver, it is small.
