Just some extra info, how to read this plan:
there are 10 lines, which are representing your track oval under 10 certain
circumstances with more or less locos on it. (Each "besetzt" means, there is a
loco in this block).
The oval consists out of 6 blocks. The locos are driving from the left to the
right and you have to imagine there is a connection from the right border to
the left border (because in real you have a track oval).
If there are engines in two following blocks, the first engine (with free block
ahead) has always full voltage. A following engine has reduced voltage further
ones directly behind have no voltage. That means even if you are driving
engines which have stronger differing speeds, the fast ones will not be able to
bump into the lamer ones. That's the basically effect of the block control
system. And block control doesn't need any changes to track (only insulation
between blocks) and motors: that's the main advantage. The system works even
with points and crossings.
Kind Regards,
Ben
