Description

Efficiently merges 4 lines.

Each line can access either opposite line without blocking the other.

U-turn is not possible.

4 trains can use the intersection simultaneously without interference.

Good for merging 2 raw material lines (or more, just add splitters) into 2 distinct generic industry terminals.

Made using Fine Road Heights mod.

@SteelRodent: Don't forget this was made way back in 2015 when there were not many possibilities ;)

I still use this in game but sometimes modify it to my use, using one way tracks etc.

This is nice and compact, but I've found one issue with doing it this way: Because you used double tracks you can have trains going one way block the Y-section for trains going the other way. On very busy railroads, that becomes a problem and can potentially deadlock the trains. If you do it with one way tracks you won't have this issue, but it's a bit trickier to build because the split-off tracks have to go over/under the mainline before joining up with the other line to end up on the correct side. The upside is that you can run a massive amount of trains through the junction without it clogging. Depends on where you cross tracks like this and how busy it is, though, whether you need to do it one way or the other.
