Block sections don't let you add a second train?

I might be missing something here but I can't seem to get a second coaster train by using block brakes. Im not really even sure what the point of them is. I have a coaster train of 5 cars and the block brakes x8, at the end of the coaster, with a piece of normal track to connect it to the station. The operation mode is set to: Block Sectioned.

No new settings for Coaster Specifics are appearing to allow me to add a second train. Can anyone assist with this?

I did originally have an exit station but I wanted to downsize the coaster a bit and Ive now lost my second train.

Try to add another section.

A layout with 2 sections allow 1 train. A layout with 3 sections allows 2 trains.

Does this solve it?

i guess it is a launch coaster? :) Cause lifthills count as block section...

If it is an LSM launch you are lucky: you need a holding launch (special piece) and somewhere on the options of that piece is the checkbox that says something like: use also as a block section, check the box and you are good to go.
With LSM launch i know it works, with all other launches i am not sure, but go and try it.

IF this doesn't work. Block brakes doesn't need to be as long as the train, so you could blockbrake- track - blockbrake - track- station. A blockbreak piece doesn't have any length requirement, so 4m is all you need.

Hey all,
Thank you so much for your feedback and info. I don't think I can get another block section or LSM holding launch on the track. I know that seems silly because it's Planet Coaster, you can do anything! But this is a coaster I squeezed into a very confined space and got all the numbers in the green for stats and I just think Im gonna wreck things. Making some small tweaks has been lowering the stats so I will say, I may just give up on it and get rid of my one block section. I appreciate you all taking the time to give me more info - will be useful for next time!
