Double and single track triangles using default MSTS track

The MSTS 1 Route Editor can be a beast to use, but it's capable of some amazing results, here you can talk with the wizards that are building some of the fantastic routes available and learn how to make your own.

If you use my fict ECML 3.1 route go into activity editor, check the co ordinates of the junction by grafham power station for a single triangle.
then go into RE and click the track sections to get the types and dyn track measurements.

Do the same at March where there is a double track triangle.

No, fairly certain that it isn't possible, chief. You need to use at least one dynamic track section.

Strongly recommend Michael Vone's PDF guide to route-building - it may cost USD15.00 but is superb value (about 250-ish pages excellently produced). It's well worth it for this and just about any other route-building queries.

Good luck.

You mean something like this but without using Dyn track.

If you do I'm sorry to say I used ton's of dynamic track.
