With this switch on, straight train tracks can be built over tunnel entrances, on a 90° angle from the tunnel. At the time of writing, however, there are massive graphical glitches that are not expected to be fixed until the new graphical subsystem is implemented sometime after the next stable release.

The train shown has two carriages, but the one at the rear cannot be seen properly. This is to do with the tunnel graphics handling and is unfixable without lots of coding.

PBS can't reserve properly a tunnel bridge, this means you need atleast one rail pice between PBS signals and a tunnel bridge.

Massive graphical glitches that are not expected to be fixed until the new graphical subsystem is implemented sometime after the next stable release.

Currently the sign cheat "tracks" will not convert tunnelbridges and is not safe to use!
