@Walter Looks awesome, looking forward to playing with these soon! Out of curiosity, are the doors on the duplex cars in the same approximate location compared to their streak counterparts? I'm currently laying out some platforms for these and am wondering if i'll need to make adjustments to accommodate them.
Thanks in advance!
You might want to check out the mod I just released; Local trains will run both forwards and 'backwards' through the city of Los Santos. https://forums.gta5-mods.com/topic/18408/map-released-two-trains-two-tracks-los-santos-local I might make it so that my express trains also run around the mountains in both directions in the future.
And it's now released! https://www.gta5-mods.com/maps/2-trains-2-tracks-los-santos-local
Please let me know of any bugs, or suggestions, to be incorporated into future versions.
A few notes on release:
Trains may still float above the tracks at certain locations that I've missed. Please report the approximate location to me so that I can make the proper adjustments.
Traffic in the quarry ignores approaching trains. This is not fixable, but sure is fun to watch.
A small platform has been provided at Mirror Park Yard. This will be further fleshed out in the future into a larger station.
Next big update will install station structures where there currently is none.
@Walter Thanks! I was decreasing the value instead of increasing it. Now trains reliably stop where they need to. Release is now scheduled for the end of next week.
@Walter Excellent Idea. Might as well reveal the map ahead of the actual release. How's this look?
Station Locations are approximate, Especially on the Express Line. I've been having a bit of difficulty stopping trains travelling at higher speeds. Once that's resolved, it should be ready to go.
EDIT: It's Released! https://www.gta5-mods.com/maps/2-trains-2-tracks-los-santos-local
Designed to compliment Walter's Overhauled Trains Mod, and inspired by Exoskeleton's Extended Freight line, this mod finally enables Trains on Two Tracks. This means from Davis Quartz through Los Santos, 2 trains can be seen at the same time, on any track, in any direction. Care has been taken to ensure that collisions between trains is impossible.
Release Roadmap (or Railmap):
V1.0 Basic Release, trains run on 2 tracks without colliding, as seen below. Include files for Walter's Extended Trains and vanilla versions. Now pending approval!
V1.5 Addition of passenger train stations and other details where needed.
V2.0 Extension through Cypress Flats
V3.0 Extension through Port Of Los Santos Intermodal Terminal
Bug Testing is now underway, with an expected release in a few weeks. Here are a few pics and a video to showcase what's in store upon release.

Let me know your thoughts on this mod. It's nearing completion, but still a work in progress!
Special Thanks to @Walter and Exoskeleton! Their improved train.dat files, amongst other things, have made this mod possible.
