Arrangement Of Train Cars Without SecondCar_

The first thing we’ve done is to show a standard configuration without a SecondCar_ and with no minus values in either the CarCountPerTrainMin or the CarCountPerTrainPreset field.

Next, we display the same train with 3 MiddleCar_s.

Just like in the previous two slideshows we’ve again this time around entered a value of -4 in the CarCountPerTrainMin field and a value of -4 in  the CarCountPerTrainPreset field in the WagenDaten_ which results in one car on our track.

Here we’ve increased the car count to two ...

The car count is now three ...

... and four.

... and finally for our train without a SecondCar_ we’ve increased the car count so there are three MiddleCar_s.

The arrangement of the cars is pretty much the same as we’d expect with one difference. Our train starts, of course, with the FrontCar_, and missing the SecondCar_ next come the required number of MiddleCar_s, and at the end of this train is the PenultimateCar_ followed of course by the RearCar_.

With this same configuration and an adjustment in the CarCountPerTrainMin setting that ensures that no less than two cars appear on the track, Weber has created his MagLev CTR which can be seen in our Showcase! Presentation here.

Arrangement Of Train Cars Without PenultimateCar_

Here in this next part of the demonstration we’ve left out the PenultimateCar_ and have not used any minus values in either the CarCountPerTrainMin or the CarCountPerTrainPreset field. The train displayed in this image is what we’d expect with all four cars appearing in the train except the PenultimateCar_.

This is the same train shown in the previous slide except this time without the PenultimateCar_ and with three MiddleCar_s. Even if we restored one Car_ type and dropped another, a train without a PenultimateCar_ at these WagenDaten_ settings is pretty much what we’d expect .

Next let’s give our train without a PenultimateCar_ a value of -4 in the CarCountPerTrainMin field and a value of -4 in  the CarCountPerTrainPreset field. As expected there is a single Car_ on the track and again this is the RearCar_.

Reducing the minus values one at a time on this train arranges the cars the same way such a reduction did when we did this same thing in the previous demonstration with the train that had no SecondCar_.

Arrangement Of Train Cars Without RearCar_

In this final part of the demonstration we’ve left out the RearCar_ and have not used any minus values in either the CarCountPerTrainMin or the CarCountPerTrainPreset field. The train displayed is what we’d expect, with all four cars appearing in the train except the RearCar_.

This is the train shown in the previous slide without the RearCar_ and with three MiddleCar_s. A train without a RearCar_ with these values in the WagenDaten_ and at this car count makes an arrangement that’s gotten a little interesting because as you see, there is the FrontCar_ and the SecondCar_ but when we get to the three MiddleCar_s there are two of those arranged one after the other, then there’s the PenultimateCar_ which is followed by another MiddleCar_.

This is the only configuration that will give us a MiddleCar_ as the RearCar_.

When we don’t add a RearCar_ to our train, entering values of -4 in the CarCountPerTrainMin field and also in the CarCountPerTrainPreset field in the WagenDaten_ gives another arrangement of interest. This time around with these minus value presets the single Car_ on the track is actually the MiddleCar_. Omitting the RearCar_ from our train also gives the only arrangement that gives a MiddleCar_ as the car in front.

Our final slide shows this same train created without a RearCar_. With these same minus preset values at this car count this makes an arrangement that’s placed a MiddleCar_ as the car in the rear just like the train with no RearCar_ that we displayed three slides previous.
