This junction is OK for small networks of 5 or so short trains.

[edit] Pros

• Cheap and easy to build.
• Trains don't have to slow down to climb a slope.

[edit] Cons

• Can only handle one train at a time.
• Will cause traffic-jams.
• Trains must slow down for sharp turns. Making the corners wider make traffic-jams more likely
