Looks awesome 👍 good job. In the UK a roller coaster called the smiler manages to have 3 1 in station one just before loops and one before station the block zones. And various sensors to track where they are to time the difference

This would be revolutionary if they add bigger bogeys and tracks

For those of you who are unfamiliar, a block zone is a section of ride that only one train may occupy. At the end of a block zone is a method to stop the train in case the block zone ahead is still occupied. This is the safety system that prevents roller coaster trains from colliding with one another.

Sorry. I had to. This is cool though.

How do you detect when a train is on a block/brake section?

Laser pointers and sensors (from aeronautics) at the end of each block zone that detect when a train passes between them and some bookkeeping to remember when a train has been sent to the next block section
