@asdaarg But why those signals in particular? When I started using those signs in networked railroads, it all failed, I had to use the basic signals, and for a split leading up to several stations I use the entry before the split, then as many exit/entry signals as I need. Works alot better than the signs you are using, imo. If not, please enlighten me.. and upload some darn tutorials, they're hard to find.

you are awesome

didn't explain why do you use different singlas at the station where they unload....
I know because the train with full cargos will wait until the other trains unload the cargos and don't make another circle on the track.

Tell me, what's the advantage of having two small trains over one large one, assuming the locomotive costs a bunch and the wagons cost only a bit in comparison. Station costs would be the same since you'd make one longer, rather then two shorter.

@SilentShadowLT The rating goes down on the supply station while no trains are loading there. Large trains can also be a problem in a larger network, leading to congestion if there is not room enough between junctions. You may also need several locomotives to pull a longer and thus heavier train. On the other hand a network with longer trains generally has higher capacity of cargo in transit.

Hi!
Why do you use so many signals?

@nordemoniac It's useful when you expand the railroad network. Then you want to squeeze in as much traffic as possible without jamming the system and having a lot of signals close together lets the trains closer to each other.

why you built 3 trains? 2 were enough i think.
why you built a double station at the unload point? one would be enough?
just for demonstration purposes?

@USpecies You are right, the 3rd train was a bit unnecessary. I tend to build larger stations for unloading, as I later expand the railroad network and have more trains unload there.
