to SwitchList
I have a couple tracks at an industry that I need special usage. It has an incoming track for cars that need to be supplied by Switchlist but then another operation takes those cars one at a time and move to another track. the industry is a car cleaning operation and the first track in incoming cars and the second track moves the cars one at a time to the building track for cleaning. Then after cleaned the cars are moved to a third track that can be used again by Switchlist. Right now when I do an operation the program takes cars from both tracks that are already there. Is this possible to fix in Switchlist or will I need to remove this industry and just do a manual list? Hope it isnt too confusing. I have included a drawing of the industry

Hi, Dave,
SwitchList currently doesn't have any explicit way to do intermediate stops. It could be a fun feature - I could imagine attaching an option to each cargo where you could say that a car has to stop at a particular industry before or after loading or unloading.
