train line not connected

[funhave]

I built a new train line, with two train stations, but they never get connected..hmm

I dont have a circle line in the town, I only hae a normal train line from noth to south

BUT, I built a terminal loop "behind" the train station, but I cant close the line with the terminal loop, so do I really need a circle line? That would be not help

Anyway, the regional trains goes through the lines during the line is not closed...

You don't need a circle for trains (you do for metros). They just need to connect from one station to at least one other. It takes a while before they start getting busy. The stations need to have freight (I have only used freight trains). They can connect to external rails which you should discover on purchasing more land.

But I think I know what you want: The locomotive at the front all the time. It doesn't work like that. Maybe in an update? only maybe , but doubt it.

Try making the loop and then connecting the rail on the other side of the station so that it heads towards the previous station.

It works.

yes that works, thanks for the answers, but I get sometimes message, if I make a train line with 2 passenger train stations, I get a message: Train line not connected ..... or simmilar

I think you have to connect to an external line. The station is not like a goods terminal which can connect to another one in the city. You will discover the external lines when you buy more land.

You need to make the passenger line by clicking three times: Station A, Station B, again Station A. The train needs to know where to return to again.
Just clicking Station A and Station B leaves the line unfinished.

This, it's just the same as making a bus line. Local trains do not autogenerate like intercity ones, they have to be told where to go.
