3 and 4 way intersections

Smart setups of railway stations, intelligent routing, solutions to complex train-routing problems.
Please provide - only if it makes sense of course - a blueprint of your creation.

"Inverted Diamond", "Inside Roundabout" ("In-and-about?" Not 100% on the name yet)
The interchange. 136 rails, 24 signals, 32x32, supports u-turns. When tiled, will form a roundabout.

North-South is RHT, East-West is LHT (Trains can enter from the North-West and South-East, Trains leave from the South-West and North-East)


Ichaleynbin convinced me to share this and they took some liberties testing it themselves. These are some of the snippets from their testing;

Ichaleynbin mentioned they got this performance by tweaking the starting signal further away?

I will try to schedule time to personally test this myself. Ichaleynbin remarked how consistent the intersection behaved across sets in the tests.

When testing intersections that mix LHT/RHT only set 1 is comparable. Set 2 and 3 makes no sense when mixing therefore also the final score makes no sense.

This is rectangular instead of square to get the shared diagonal signals to line up?
