Does MSTS allow for passing loops to be used on single track sections? I am constructing a short activity on the Hisatsu line and all I need it to do is this:1) My train goes towards Matasaki from Yatake whilst another approaches from the opposite direction (from Yoshimatsu) at the same time.
2) My train, which arrives at the station first, waits until the other train enters the passing loop.
3) When the other train arrives my train gets the green light and heads off towards Yoshimatsu.So far I can get my train to get from Yatake to Yoshimatsu but the other train only departs after mine has completed the entire route.
