Hi!
English is not my native language, so:
What is that track or branch called and final stations so the engine can
switch to the other end of the train? Overrun? circulation?
What is the stopper (buffer stop) called in English?
I am working on an update of my pages, should be ready soon.
If there is a java freak here, then let me know...
