Why is there a train track going through here?

I don't know.

But it is kind of topical though, because we're adding signaling systems and collisions to the trains.

Ever since we introduced trains to the game back in the day, we've been wanting to get around to adding a signaling system, and we're finally doing it.

There are two types of train signals, block signals and path signals.

Block signals can be placed along the train tracks to create sections of your track where only one train can pass at a time.

But if you're a train aficionado, then you'll find that you'll need more complex solutions for your layout.

For that, we have path signals.

Path signals are used to reserve a path through a block so you can create safe, collision-free intersections.

So what happens if you don't make use of the signals?

There's also been an update in how the timetables work.
