Re: How to make multiple trains chase each other #automation #dispatcher


 

Assuming there are no issues with contiguous blocks, sections verified, and real/virtual signals (if used) working, then:
Each train should have its own transit, even if each follows the same route.
Two trains cannot use the same transit at the same time.
?
As a rule, I always use a traininfo file and transit pair to define a unique train run.
That keeps things from becoming confused.
?
Mostly I use each run as "to safe sections", especially when I have passing movements.
For reversing movements on the main, I sparingly use "as far as".
?
I can't stress enough that you treat each train movement as choreography.
Walk each movement through logically and in concert with every other train's interaction.
Automation is more of a dance routine than just pressing the "go" button and watch what happens.
