Locomotive Track

The Locomotive Track is a special type of minecart track added by the Railcraft mod. This track is used to control the Steam and Electric Locomotive Running mode. When this track is powered by a positive redstone signal, it will stop/start the locomotive based on its mode and the mode the track is on. The track has 3 modes, like the locomotive: Running, Idle, and Shutdown. These modes can be switched by using a Crowbar on the track.

When the track is orange it will put the locomotive in Idle mode after it passes over it. When the track is red it will put the locomotive in Shutdown mode after it passes over it. When the track is green it will put the locomotive in Running mode after it passes over it.
