 Interlocking is a set of equipments employed to prevent train collisions while allowing trains to go to their destinations. This chapter will explain some basic concepts and includes a task at the end that you can try to do yourself.

 \subsection{TCBs}\label{s:iltcbs}
 Track circuit breaks (TCBs) are nodes that can be assigned to two-way tracks and indicate the limits of track sections. TCBs have two sides - each corresponding to a direction of the track that the TCB is assigned to - that can be assigned to two track sections.

-After assigning the TCB, you can right click it to open the TCB formspec. This will be used in the following sections. Please note that the TCB formspec has a section for side A and one for side B - when following the instructions in the next sections, make sure you click the button for the right TCB side.

 The two sides of the TCB are assigned based on the orientation of the tracks. In particular, straight tracks with different orientations can still appear visually the same. For this reason, most graphs in the rest of this chapter will use cardinal directions instead of actual TCB sides, or omit TCB sides if these are irrelevant.
 
-For new players, it is recommended to set up all TCBs before continuing to the next sections.
