Signals set the allowed driving direction over a piece of track. Mouse over them or hold a signal and it should show you

#

The track through that station is southbound but the station needs trains from the south going north

jolly sun Jan 17, 2026, 1:13 PM

#

so i need to do this on the other side?

#

Red arrows are the driving directions that are allowed. Green are what the stations need

#

The easiest solution is to move signals around so this becomes a consistent one-way loop

#

Trains enter on the right track so ideally the stations face south, but you could keep the stations the same and have all traffic cross over instead

#

Like this

#

Any signals you place then go on the right side of the track when looking in the direction of those arrows

#

So that would look something like this. Note how a bunch of track becomes redundant if you do this.

#

No need to allow trains to turn into oncoming traffic

#

so it matter if i put signal at the same track but opposite position?
