道岔、轉轍器和相關標誌
Appearance
Switches are moveable pieces of track designed to steer rail vehicles in one of two possible directions. Depending on the session difficulty settings , switches can be operated in many ways:
- Using Comms radio on the switch
- Using station and route schematic maps with the Dispatcher license
- Using Switch setter gadget
- Using mouse cursor in mouse mode
- By manually interacting with the switch lever
與道岔相關的標誌有兩種類型:「道岔預告標誌」和「轉轍器標誌」。
「道岔預告標誌」為一個繪有紅色「Y」字形狀的白色標誌,用於表示前方路段設有道岔與當前路段的速限末端。它的正下方附有一塊白色的附標,用於表示其與道岔的相對距離,以公里為單位。即距離若為400公尺,則以「0.4」標記。
「轉轍器標誌」則被置於轉轍器上。為繪有一條白色對角線的紅色標誌,用於表示轉轍器當前的開通方向。進行轉轍時,轉轍器標誌會隨著軌道的移動指向對應方向。
When operating long trains in reverse, distance tracker can be very useful to navigate switches.
