Signalling in Rail3D

Getting started with Rail3D signals — simple examples

Signalling novices, start here: The articles in this section will take you step-by-step through some typical layout situations, illustrating how they are signalled in real life (and why) and showing how you can use the Rail3D signal system to model them.

• Basic Through Station — double track, no points - easy!
• Basic Station Crossover — double track and one crossover
• Simple Junction — controlled signals, junction indicators
• Two-track Terminus — controlled signals, reverses, free-route
• Run-round Loop — uncouplers, shunt feature, expressions
• Basic Single Track — controlled signals, lock-through
• Basic ShuntingBasic Shunting
• Hidden Sidings And Depots
• New State Logic
