Pete,
I will attempt to provide a clearer, and more complete, explanation of what I am trying to do.
?
My RR has two yards at the South (Baltimore) and North (York) terminus of the railroad.? In between these are 7 towns, I will call these A, B, C, D, E, F, G (from North to South) because location relative to each other is relevant to what I am trying to do and using these letters makes it easy to see where each location is relative to the the others.
?
I have JMRI configured for max train size of 450 feet, and since all cars on my RR are 40' or less a typical train consists of 10 cars plus engine and caboose.
?
I will discuss only one south bound train here (YB10), and the Route for this train is York, A, B, C, D, E, F, G, Baltimore, and this train only does work in A, C, E, G (there is another train that runs later in the session that uses this same route and only does work in B, D, F).?
?
It may be worth noting that I build all trains for a session before the session starts.? I do not build any trains during the session, and all trains will get terminated in JMRI after the session is over.
?
Currently, when I build the train (YB10) it will typically leave the yard with the 10 cars and set all 10 of those cars out at the industries in the locations were it works, and it will also pick up cars from those locations, arriving at Baltimore with 10 cars all of which are destined for the Yard (the cars have no destination beyond the yard when they arrive).? Very rarely a car will be picked up in a location and setout in another location before reaching the yard, but this is very rare and I am not sure why.? Also, I do not allow cars to travel from origin to destination, so no cars are picked up in York to be set out in Baltimore'
?
What I want to have happen is, as an example, the train picks up a car at C, that is destined for A.? This train has already passed A so it cannot deliver the car to A directly.? I want the car to be picked up from C by YB10, taken to Baltimore and put on a classification track that services A so that it can be sent out on a future train (next session) that does service A.??
?
I hope that more clearly explains what I am currently doing and what I am trying to get JMRI to do.
