Let's add a two way traffic track to the layout and see how this can be configured. A two way track is treated as two separate one way blocks on the same track. Both blocks have their own block signal and entry sensor. When Lua reserves one of the two blocks for a train, the other block has to be reserved too. Likewise, when released, the twin block also has to be released. We'll have to tell Lua which blocks are 'two way twin' blocks, such that this extra reservation and release can take place.
