Tours

Introduction

A Tour is a list of Schedules which a train must travel.
Activating a Tour is done in the same way as activating a single Schedule from the Loco Tab or from within the occupied block; Both are context menus. (Pop up menu.)
Note: A tour with multiple individual schedules waits between these individual schedules.
Schedules must be defined before setting up tours.
