      jmri.jmrit.operations.router.Router

public class Router
extends TrainCommon

Router for car movement. This code attempts to find a way to move a car to its final destination through the use of two or more trains. Code first tries to move car using a single train. If that fails, attempts are made to use two trains via an interchange track , then a yard. Next attempts are made using three or more trains using any combination of interchanges and yards. Currently the router is limited to five trains.
