One way I found to reduce the number of the never ending red lights, is go in and change the endpoint and start point. I found that you never ever should end a path at the end of the track. Always go in and put the endpoint in a few feet short of the end of track. The same for a start point, never use the end of a track as the start point. Since I started doing this I have cleared up all kinds of problems with signals not clearing.Kevin Arceneaux

RE: End points and start points

Thanks for the tip. I was wondering why a simple signal modification in a route would cause the AI to stop.
