+\subsection{Node groups}
+\advtrains{} uses node groups to identify whether a node has certain properties. The following fields are used:
+\begin{apidoc}{Node definition!\texttt{groups}}
+\item \apifield{advtrains\_signal} Whether the node is a signal.
+\item \apifield{not\_blocking\_trains} The numeric constant 1 if the item does not block trains.
+\item \apifield{save\_in\_at\_nodedb} The numeric constant 1 if the item should be save in the internal node database used by \advtrains{}.
+\end{apidoc}
+
+The following values (as numeric constants) are accepted for items in the \texttt{advtrains\_signal} group:
+\begin{apidoc}{Node definition!\texttt{groups}!\texttt{advtrains\_signal}}
+\item \apienum{1} The node is a signal with a static signal aspect.
+\item \apienum{2} The node is a signal, and its signal aspect can be set.
+\end{apidoc}
-Please refer to \texttt{advtrains/api\_doc.txt} for now.
+\subsection{The \texttt{advtrains} field}
+The \texttt{advtrains} field in the node definition may contain the following fields:
+\begin{apidoc}{Node definition!\texttt{advtrains}}
+\item \apifield{get\_aspect(\var{pos}, \var{node})} A function that returns the signal aspect of the signal \var{node} at \var{pos}. The returned signal aspect does not need to be identical to the signal aspect passed to the previous call to \texttt{set\_aspect}.
+\item \apifield{set\_aspect(\var{pos}, \var{node}, \var{asp})} A function that sets the aspect of the signal \var{node} at \var{pos} to \var{pos}. If \var{asp} is not supported by the signal, the implementation may choose to set the aspect to something different.
+\item \apifield{supported\_aspects} A table of supported signal aspects.
