This type of junction is good in the respect that it has a high capacity, but it's no good for hilly or cluttered areas because of the large amount of land it requires.

  • Can handle 4+ trains at a time.
  • Takes up a large amount of space when built without sharp corners.
  • Make the loop and diagonal branches longer than your trains, so the main line is not blocked by a waiting train.
  • Use tunnels if the bridges slow down your trains.
  • If necessary, upgrade to an Over-Under junction.
  • Area: 10 x 10
