Noting down trainnumber/digits
So, as I'm still new to dispatching, I try to understand what trains to expect.

Therefore, I wrote down these notes, for me to refer to, if I ever forget it.

My notes so far:
4 digits = passengertrain

6 digit = freight train:
??? = empty
??? = full

etc.

More important is the fact about prioritys.

3132 = a 4 digit number means highest priority. This Train has to pass by first. (Pendolino)
Everything else have to wait.

16452 = a 5 digit number means passenger train. They have normal priority.

424046 = a 6 digit number means freight or empty trains with lowest priority. They should always wait if theres a higher priority train behind them, to let it overtake.

13xx / 131xx Pendolino / Intercity from Warsaw to Miechow
14xx / 141xx Pendolino / Intercity from Warsaw to Katowice
16xx / 161xx Pendolino / Intercity from Warsaw to Zelislawice

31xx / 311xx Pendolino / Intercity from Miechow to Warsaw
41xx / 411xx Pendolino / Intercity from Katowice to Warsaw
61xx / 611xx Pendolino / Intercity from Zelislawice to Warsaw

1320xx Cargo train from Warsaw to Miechow
1460xx Empty commuter train from Warsaw to Katowice

24xxxx Empty cargo train. Accelerates and brakes like a passenger train.

62xxxx Maintenace train from Katowice to Czarna
64xxxx Maintenance train from Katowice to Myszkow

Any other 6 digit number is a regular cargo train with speed limits between 80 and 100kph except for the rare TSE train which is a 50 kph test train.

These IMO are the most important numbers to know.

Is this about right?

4 digits = pendolino: high priority (passing first before any other type)

5 digits = passengertain: high priority (normal operation)

6 digit = freight or empty trains: low priority (has to wait for other trains)
