I have just started playing and try to understand this train lecture in-game.
I don't see how it should be possible to make the red train move to the destination i tried everything but i don't seem to understand.

See the purple area? The red train is not allowed to enter it because the blue train has already claimed it. The solution is to use signals to cut the purple area into pieces, so the blue train can't claim all of it.

Areas connect through merging tracks, and even 90 degree crossing tracks. So we need multiple cuts to do it.

The answer is to put signals in front and behind the blue train.
