AND, it's my darned memory failing me yet again, just when I need it, the most ! Can someone who knows, with a degree of authority, exactly how you go about making a simple crossover between two siding tracks ? I simply can't recall how to do this off the top of my head ! Every time I try it, I get it wrong, so, is there someone who can kindly explain it to me, step by step, so I get it right, with little trouble, or, as little trouble as possible ! Starting with a new station, and two sidings, and the first one is joined to the mainline, in the usual fashion.
But when I need to press the 'crossover' button, it makes the two straight lined - one either side of the track,, as long as the track is straight, and I recall that's when you set the 'easements' button to 'on'. That's usually set to 'on' when you need a shorter crossover, and 'yard' as well. What am I forgetting here ? The red lines aren't usually showing here, when making crossovers , I don't think. I haven't made any like this, for so long, now, I'm unclear about this, I'm afraid, and really in need of help, thank you.
Regards...
Jim McDermott
