I had a 2 source food processing plant feeder setup going last night. Livestock and grain farms each with 2 trains with single track branches leading to a common double track section, then a 2 track terminal. An empty train at the the double track fork to the 2 single track branches always waited for its respective branch to clear before proceeding - some form of route setting or presignal behaviour? (i had 2-way signals on the branches just past the junction). A signal (normally at red) did not clear unless a train was approaching it, and signals cleared far enough ahead of the moving train to show the full sequence of 'aspects', i.e green->yellow->red. -- Mark
