Configuring 3-Aspect Signals and Banner Repeaters

Linking 3-Aspect Railway Signals

While 2-aspect signals only show stop or go, 3-aspect railway signals feature green, yellow, and red lights to regulate train flow over consecutive sections.

1. Place your 3-aspect railway signal beside the track.

2. Hold a stick in your main hand to initiate linking.

3. Right-click the base Create train signal controlling the immediate track block first.

4. Right-click the base train signal for the following block second to finalize the setup.

Connecting the immediate block first and the following block second enables the signal to display caution aspects when the next block ahead is occupied.

Setting Up Banner Repeaters for Early Warnings

When signals sit behind tight curves or blind junctions, train drivers may not have enough time to brake:

1. Position a banner repeater along the track ahead of your main railway signal.

2. Align the repeater toward approaching trains using standard placement or 45-degree angle snapping.

3. The banner repeater displays a diagonal line to convey signal states early, giving drivers sufficient warning before they reach the main signal.
