Hi,
the trains in my factory have different train lengths. There are 4-10-4 trains, 1-1 trains, 1-2-1 trains and any other combination which comes into my mind.
However, as you can see there is a big train depot designed for the very long trains (4-10-4). This depot should only store the long trains.
That is why I connected all of the depots with a combinator, which sends the following signals:
max train length = 18
min train length = 18
max train number = 2
The problem: the depot is approached not only by the long trains, but also by the short ones. So maximum train signal and minimum train signal do not work properly or I have done something wrong, but I think that this is the right way how to connect them.
Please tell me if something went wrong
Edit: Great, different names work well. Depot-1 for short trains, Depot-18 for long trains. Thx

Re: LTN Max Train Length
Depots don't accept train limits. Use different names for it and I recommend to read the how to thread.

Re: LTN Max Train Length
Ok then I run the long trains in one network and the short trains in an other network

Strictly speaking, they don't have to be different networks. Trains return to the depot by name. You could have 'Long Train Depot' and 'Tiny Train Depot' and assign the trains accordingly. They won't mix after that.
Re: LTN Max Train Length
I did not know that you can have different depots, but now everything works fine
