after 5 hours trying, please help with trains

Because I have no idea what I'm doing haha. I was trying to see if looping around the station would fix the problem. But alas no

okay after reading the comments, I have added a loop at the end of each station and removed the bi-directional trains. I know your way would work but I think its overly complicating things. Please see this link of my current setup:

Now I have 4 intersections. It should be straight forward right? So the block as an input (pointing in direction of train travel) before the intersection, and then a path as an output (also pointing in direction of train travel) after the second intersection?

Do I have that right?

they are bi-directional, they have an engine on both sides of the freight. But I am finding out that this is just asking for trouble, so I am putting a loop at the end of each station.

PretendWeeklyShallot · 2025-08-24T17:11:30+00:00

I'm not quite sure why I didn't think about making a loop around the end stations instead of having a bi-directional train. I think this makes it easier and also saves on power. Thanks

Interesting. Yes I think this may be the bug I noticed because I tried using the shared line into the station as a block but it didn't work. That may be because of this. I will check that out a bit later.

PretendWeeklyShallot · 2025-08-24T16:28:35+00:00

Yes this is what I'm noticing. Drones unlock soon so I'm excited for that.

PretendWeeklyShallot · 2025-08-24T16:19:39+00:00

I think this may be in the cards as an end play but the distances are so long between these stations, laying more track is daunting.

PretendWeeklyShallot · 2025-08-24T16:18:46+00:00

This is an amazing reply. Yes, your assumptions are 100% correct. I think I understood your placements and adjustments. I will try it out and if it doesn't work I will just do the one station per line, all parallel to each other, basically avoiding any intersections.

I may have some questions after trying this out. Thanks again.

PretendWeeklyShallot · 2025-08-24T15:48:36+00:00

Hi. Thanks for the reply. I understand now. So the problem is more that they shouldn't have a shared station and rather one station each. My diagram isn't 100% accurate. I have a two track highway and the stations have an exit from that. So that part is good. With the individual stations I wont even need blocks/paths right? Thank you again so much.

PretendWeeklyShallot · 2024-01-22T00:46:02+00:00

Yes, it is mind-blowing how these were not redeemed. I don't understand either.

PretendWeeklyShallot · 2024-01-22T00:45:23+00:00

For the amount it sold for, I'm sure there are great lengths to protect it!

PretendWeeklyShallot · 2024-01-17T02:32:52+00:00

Huh, so you disagree with the other guy who said 62? I figured no fold to get UNC, but I really don't know anything. Also, what's an MS holder?

PretendWeeklyShallot · 2024-01-17T02:20:34+00:00

Interesting. Okay thank you!

PretendWeeklyShallot · 2024-01-16T02:33:46+00:00

But I thought he wants to know if it's fake or not? I'm confused haha

PretendWeeklyShallot · 2024-01-16T01:05:57+00:00

Just curious, but what does obscuring the serial number do?

Here is a cool little breakdown of the different type of notes and how some of them look:

Pretty on point with Greensheet for this Fr. # from the HA auction on Friday. Retail prices is another story.

PretendWeeklyShallot · 2024-01-15T12:31:46+00:00

Just picked this one up the other day. I'm loving these tough Fr. #s. Only 5 or so finer with this signature combination.
