Atomic Systems

I made a new route. And made an activity with some traffic. The activity is working Ok. Crossings are happening very smoothly. But anyway can I make my train overtaking another train or another train overtake my train? Anybody know how to make overtaking in MSTS?

Hi

Due to the limits of MSTS this is one thing you can't do because it will only let one train in a section at any one time so eg if your in a goods loop and you want an express to over take you the goods train will get the path and the express will follow. Its somthing that I would want to do to make goods traffic more interesting.

hope this helps Colin

Not quite - overtaking can be induced by placing double reversing points in a loop or siding in the player path, which will allow a player train to be overtaken by a following AI train. MartinH, amongst others, has posted details on how to do it in this forum - try a search.

Good advice there - a search on "double reversing point" and selecting search for all terms shows up 15 threads. A quick look at 3 or 4 indicate they have the answers in them.

I made a new Indian Colour Light Signaling system. Within few days, I will upload the files. Wait and see.. A full tutorial included about overtaking of trains.
