I'm very new to this game. After I try original scenarios on OTTD I found them very easy. I decided to play them on original game, how they're intended to be played.
Now I'm playing Scotland 1956 scenario. Enjoy it a lot.
I have problem with my trains get lost. For example I managed to sneak in 2 way terminus station in to the lumber mill. I supply it from 2 forests. Often I find trains from branch 1 travelling lost on branch 2 and trains from branch 2 on branch 1.
Do in original TTDX I must do dedicated platforms for every branch or I'm missing something with signals?
Thank You

The block signals are really hard to set up correctly, basically not even making network gridlock free... That is, why PBS were introduced. I would personally build closed loops with no branching and no multiple platforms. Just loop with basic one way signals. I would also do forced servicing. (force the train to go via depot by track arrangement)
