The one-way signals are for directing traffic in a specific direction. By directing trains as shown below, you can have a much more efficient rail service.

Here I have four trains running on this one line making much more money than just one.

Notice that the trains are traveling in both directions like a highway.

Two-way signals can direct traffic in two directions, but they're usually best for complex stations like this:

Normally I would give you a link to the signals guide on AMI Trains, but it is currently unavailable.

@ahtom133: Are you sure you don't have to many trains on one route? Can you post some screenshots? :roll:
