I just unlocked trains 2 days ago, and got overwhelmed. Haven't played the game since. What a perfect time to upload this thank you

You are the first person to explain the pathing and block signaling in an easily digestible way. Thank you

I watched this one hoping it would help me feel less intimidated by building trains. This guide is AMAZING and describes everything quite well, but now knowing just how much is involved in building a train network, I'm definitely still intimidated!😅 Still, when I am finally ready to start a train network, this is and will be my go-to for help!

<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_CamgTYd09I&t=180">3:00</a> when building a buffer system for train stations (both load side and unload side)<br><br>Needed if you are planning to do close to one full belt per station or more. It is not really dependent on the stack size, it is dependent on how full the belt is. <br><br><br>To build a buffer capable of running one full belt per train station:<br><br>- Put an Industrial Storage in front of the station.<br>- Connect the one belt to the Industrial Storage. <br>- Connect the Industrial Storage to the train station with 2 belts. <br><br>The belt fills the train station until the train arrives. <br>The buffer fills while the train is in the station pausing the station. <br>Then the buffer uses the 2 belts to fill the station after the train leaves. With only one belt in and 2 out the buffer empties in 30 seconds after the train leaves. <br><br><br>This must be done both load and unload. <br><br>It is possible depending on stack size and the length of the track to have more than 1 belt for each station. But you will never get 2 full belts per station due to the load/unload pause. <br><br><br>Stack size is not really important for the pause problem with buffers. Stack size is more important when determining how long your track can be. With a small stack size and a long track, you will either need to use less than one belt per car, or multiple trains on the same route.

I have no idea what any of this means, and yet I know exactly when to use signals. Essentially I know nothing, therefore I understand everything.

Thank you for uploading this tutorial, Dekoba. As a new player, I've been following alone & building your "Lets Play", and after reaching "TRAINS will SAVE THE DAY", I decided I needed to understand much more about train layouts. This video really does clarify how the train system works, and will certainly help me going forward. Anyway, I'm off back now to "TRAINS will SAVE THE DAY", and trying to recreate your Heavy Encased Frame factory and getting into Blueprints. Love this series, which is challenging, but really enjoyable.
