This is your minimal set of signals, and this should work in that trains should be permitted to be assigned to the line. Flip the camera as necessary to again align yourself to direction of travel and place the signal on the right side, before the merge. You need to place another signal at the other station as well to prevent the same happening there. If I had placed the signal much further forward at the split, we could still run into situations where two trains found themselves in a stand-off and unable to move. I placed it far enough back that any train exiting the station still has room to get by on the left. But not quite enough to fix all issues!įacing the direction of travel, I placed just one signal on the right side. This one signal was enough to update the line’s routing.
You will need signals to make it operate efficiently with more than one train. You’ll have found that simply creating a double track doesn’t mean your line will automatically use it. Signals may well require a post all of their own, but your first adventures with double tracking and signals may well cause the re-emergence of the ‘Unable to find path to stop’ error. Possibly this is because it could be ‘fixed’ with adding an additional carriage of the right type.
Interestingly, setting up a train incorrectly in this way will allow the train to run regardless of the type mismatch. If you’ve inadvertently setup a passenger to passenger line, and you attempt to assign a vehicle that carries only cargo to it (or vice versa) - you’ll see your old friend ‘Error: Unable to path to stop’. On the right is simply the road vehicle depot. Middle is the freight station with plenty of loading space. Passenger train stations will similarly have benches. Left is a small passenger stop, with seating.
After stations are placed you’ll need to visually identify them for type.
