I searched far and wide on the net for this, just to prove that having
parallel lines was better than having signals.

Quoted from the TT Semi-FAQ....

Double lines

Passing lanes (lines with signals on) are not very efficient. Instead, it is
better to have two parallel tracks connecting stations. Each track will be
one way. Northbound trains (or whatever) will run on the right (or left if
you're British) side, and southbound trains will run on the left. Both lines
are separate, so trains won't have to stop to let others pass. To coerce the
trains into following this pattern, you'll have to use one-way signals. The
regular version of TT doesn't support one-way signals, so this layout isn't
possible. To build a one-way signal, build a two-way signal and then click
on it. It should now face one direction only. Click again to make it face
the other direction, and click a third time to turn it back into a two-way
signal.

With double lines, you can have more than two stations on a line. In fact,
you can have all of your stations interconnected with double lines and
intersections. For this to work, however, the layout will to be tweaked to
perfection. The AI that controls the trains isn't very intelligent, so it
can be fooled by some layouts. Trains may travel down the wrong line and may
become lost, traveling in circles forever until you intervene. You'll have
to keep an eye on your trains. If any train starts to lose money, check on
it immediately.

There you have it! What a marvellous strategy.

A mother and father took their 6 year old son to a nude beach. As the boy
walked along the beach, he noticed that some of the ladies had boobs
bigger than his mother's, and asked her why.
She told her son, "The bigger they are the dumber the person is."

The boy pleased with the answer, goes to play in the ocean but returns to
tell his mother that many of the men have larger 'units' than his dad.

His mother replied, "The bigger they are the dumber the person is."

Again satisfied with this answer, the boy returns to the ocean to play.

Shortly after, the boy returned again. He promptly told his mother, "Daddy
is talking to the dumbest girl on the beach and the longer he talks, the
dumber he gets."
