Implementation Details and References

1. When the train arrives at the departure station of the next route, it changes according to the numbering rule of that route. For example, There are two routes, one is from "A" to "B" named Line 1 (the train numbers are from 001 to 099), the other is from "B" to "C" named Line 2 (the train numbers are from 101 to 199), then the train number 001 should change to 101 (if it's the first train) at station "B".

2. Each "route" has it's own rule, including pattern, from, to and increment, eg, the pattern is "M10-00", from 1 to 998, increment 2, then the number of the first 3 trains should be "M10-01", "M10-03", "M10-05".

This can help to distinguish trains running different routes on the same track, and to find the cause of delay (when it happens, the first train usually has the smallest number).

Doesn't the mod already kinda do this?
