2way eol
|
The 2way eol feature plays a key role in this station. Trains try to join a platform and the 2way signals divert them if the platform is full.

PBS semi-balancing
|
This station looks very messy but due to the fact that it allows trains to choose from many paths, it works. It does not allow all trains go to all platforms though.

Tunnel Exit
|
In the exit of the station tunnels are used and another set of platforms is fit in there. This not only looks awesome but it also uses the tunnels as waiting space behind platforms for trains so the exit is faster.

2 sides
|
This technically is quite a normal station. But the key difference is that it is halved and each part enters from one side, making the entrance much smaller and thus work much better.

Technically simple unbalanced terminus, visually a truly wonderful station.

Unbalanced Terminus
|
A nice terminus station in a cute shape. As it uses a single entrance signal, it uses penalties (the road crossings) to make trains prefer platforms which are far away from the first split aka the so called valhallasw style.

Halved overflow
|
A special station consisting of 2 parts. Trains try to pick a platform on their part and in case they fail they move to the other part. This station has a downside of problems with balancing and in this case was supported by flipflop logic.

Reverser Exit
|
The exit of this station is particularly interesting due to saving space by reversers.

Reverser Entrance
|
This station uses reversers in station entrance. Note the need of PF trap to make trains "know" the path to station.

2 in 1 out Terminus
|
This station is a bit different due to using 3-tile X while 2 tracks go in (from each incoming track one) and one track goes out. A nice and easy way how to simplify balancing a terminus station with 2 lines.

Balanced station
|
This station has a few interesting points. Aside from the fact that it is huge, it balances all 4 lines into double "X"s which forces it to also use a lot of bridges atop of tunnels..

X-less Terminus
|
One of the terminus stations which lacks the "X" many people fear.

Looping station
|
This station is basically a normal 2way eol ro-ro but with the difference that trains which fail to find a platform try again on a different line which lets us use less platforms per line.

2 platform rows
|
The main point of this station is to have many platforms. Therefore very fitting to use in maglev games as seen in the picture.

Unbalanced two-way drop
|
This station is focussed on high throughput. By forcing trains in to the nearest platforms no pre-signals are needed. In this case penalties by road crossings are used in combination with two-way signals.

Semi-balanced drop
|
Sometimes it is just enough to make two 2 line entrance than a full balancing of 4 lines. Also note small signal gaps for high throughput.
