George,
What I do is use the shift click to added the block contents label (marker) and immediately do a right click to get the right click menu before moving the mouse.

I found that if I drew a selection box around the invisible marker that it would appear as a tiny yellow box. Then if I right clicked the yellow box a popup menu would appear giving me a couple choices of "alignment" and nothing else. I clicked one of the alignment options in desperation. After doing that the marker turned black and stayed that way. Its right click menu then functioned normally.
?
Another way of forcing the marker to appear is to enter text in the value field of the block, a PITA.
?
Am I overlooking something or does this area need a little work?
?
The train tracking itself is working great.
