path advice for different speeds trains

Post by Wolf01 »

every time that a fast train enter on a main track after a slow train it slows down because the speed of the slow train
then i suggest to build a new type of pre-signal that won't left the slow trains to proceed, and build a junction to a second binary for slow trains:

Code: Select all


           -----> fast trains
          x                           o
-----\----|---------------------/-----|--
----\-\------------------------/-/-------
     \ \  o                o  / /
      \ \-|----------------|-/ /
 \     \----------------------/
  \------> slow trains

normal signal
o
|

no-slow train pass signal
x
|

the slow trains go to the second track and wait that the fast train pass, then the slow train return to the main track

build a checkpoint on each track and you can choose which train should go on what track
Adding new types of signals aren't easy :(
