Railway Management Block

A display board block placed on a station platform. It auto-displays stopped / next trains and integrates with monitors, color settings, and announcements (SAS).

How to open

  1. Place the Railway Management Block on a station platform. Just like Create's station block, you place it onto a track by right-clicking a track you have laid.
  2. Right-click the placed block to open the GUI.
  3. Which station it displays is decided by linking this block to the Management Computer with a Memory Card.
  4. The first person to right-click it becomes the owner. When the face icon in the lower right is set to Private, no one but the owner can open it (Access Mode).

Operation (where to click / scroll)

All operations inside the GUI are done with the mouse (no keyboard).
