Is there a two-way exit train depot?

Is there a two-way exit train depot? Similar to a ship depot, it allows for entrance and exit from two directions.

no, that does not exist.

It doesn't exist in the original game.

It does exist as a patch included in the JGR Patch Pack, not as one building through. You can achieve a "drive-through depot" by first enabling the feature in game settings, then putting two or more stations back-to-back, so that each end has an exit. Both trains and road vehicles can then teleport between the entrances of the first and last station.

Are you sure JGRs patch works for vehicles?
It sure works for trains, but there is no indication or setting to enable the feature for road vehicles.
Ive tried with 2 road vehicles back to back , but cant get the vehicles to go thru the depots from one side to the other.
Maybe I need a later version. Using v47.2 .
tnx

I thought I was sure, alas I was incorrect. Just trains. I may have brought it up with JGR, I don't remember now, and I don't remember if he ever addressed it.

Thanks.
It would be a worthwhile feature to add.
I went and read thru all the notes on updates from 47.2 to the latest which is 53.3 and theres no mention anywhere of vehicle support for the back to back depots.
Hope its not forgotten.

Drive-through train depots were introduced in v0.38.0. There was never a mention of road vehicle depots; even the settings window just says train depots.

Got it, thank you very much.
It would be even better if this feature could be integrated into the main program.
