00:00Oh, hello. You must be my replacement. I'm Josek. I've been the dispatcher here for over 30 years now, and I'll be training you today.
00:20First up, we have the switches. These allow us to direct the train's route and decide which track they'll follow.
00:27Now we'll move on to the signals.
00:30These signals instruct the train to either proceed or halt, depending on which way they're flipped.
00:35As a dispatcher, you'll be responsible for routing trains to specific locations, so we should get familiar with some of the routes you'll be using.
00:43And remember, switches first, then signals.
00:49Here's the first train. Make sure to keep an eye on its schedule to see where it's headed and when it's leaving.
00:54We wouldn't want it to be late. Now we've got the hang of things, we don't want to get bored, do we?
00:59I think it's time to ramp up the traffic pit. And we can do that by accepting some contracts.
01:05Oh, looks like the train's heading for the docks.
01:11We could take the boobney route, but that takes a while. Why don't we build a shortcut?
01:17Fantastic job. You know, I think you're ready to wear one of these now.
01:22Your very own pocket watch.
01:24Well, you've certainly got the hang of that.
01:27The trains will start coming soon.
01:28I'm off to get a coffee, and then we'll start for real.
