Track objects are an advanced modelling object for use in specialist track applications. A Track object connects portal objects (representing depots, terminals and junctions) in one or a sequence of sections. Only one train at a time can travel along an individual line of a section of track.


Track sections have section running times associated with them. Up time and Down Time along the section can be defined for each class of train/item using the section. You can enter section times directly or make reference to a table of section running times (described later in this document). Referencing a section running times table enables convenient specification of different running times across the same section for different train types.
