Diagram 102: Schedule Diagram with alternative Paths
Diagram 102 shows a schedule for train movements, that begins in of the three blocks
in “Hidden Yard”, proceed on the mainline to clockwise direction, pass “Southtown”
through one of the two blocks and end again in “HiddenYard”.
To start the schedule, assign a train to one of the blocks in “Hidden Yard”, select the
schedule on the computer screen and call the appropriate start command of TrainController.
The Dispatcher will automatically allocate the blocks and activate the routes
that belong to this schedule and will automatically start the train. If there is more than
one train located in “Hidden Yard” and both can be used with this schedule, then one of
these trains is automatically selected. It is also possible, though, to pre-select the train
yourself prior to starting the schedule.
The Dispatcher will also look for an appropriate path through “Southtown” and will select
a block in “Southtown” as well as appropriate routes to this block, that are available.
If both blocks of “Southtown” are currently available, then the Dispatcher will
perform a random selection. In the same way an appropriate block in “Hidden Yard” is
selected, when the train approaches the destination.
Even more: each schedule can be started in either possible direction. If the schedule is
started in the opposite direction, then the specified destination blocks of the schedule
