Pros

  • Can handle a large number of trains at a time.
  • Traffic jams are unlikely.
  • Main line is level and straight.
  • Trains don't have to loop around like they do in a half cloverleaf.

Cons

  • Trains must slow down to climb a slope.
  • Trains must turn right to turn left. Trains might get lost if Waypoints are not used.
  • Costs a lot and requires a moderate amount of space to build.

Tips

  • It's best you make it so your longest train can fit completely into one of the turning tracks without blocking the main line behind it.
