Train lines

Despite my best efforts, my trains keep ending up stuck at the three way split in the middle, despite often being able to take one of the routes around. Why is this happening? What would be the easyest way to fix it?

Once your stops and wait conditions are set, you train should depart on its own. If you get a 'No path' error, however, that means something is preventing the train from comprehending the route.

How do you stop trains from crashing in Factorio?

Whenever there is more than one train on a track, there is the possibility that trains can crash into one another. To prevent trains from doing this, we place signals at intervals along the track and at crossings. A regular rail signal protects the rail block after it, up to the next signal or the end of the track.

How far apart should rails be Factorio?
