Car recalls, privileged mode cars and earthquake operations, and cars placed into operation are
coordinated between the groups. This coordination limits the number of active cars which can
be in motion. These operations are restricted based on the number of cars allowed to run.
Positioning of cars are resolved within all groups. As cars complete their movement, car
operations are adjusted so that more cars can be repositioned.
All groups wait for cars with privileged modes to be idle for the allotted 2-3 minutes before
performing any recalls. Recalls are performed one car at a time in ascending order starting with
the first group. When all cars have been recalled, cars can be allocated for normal operation.
Normal operations are assigned based on the following sequence:
• Privileged mode cars
• Maximum number of cars within an interconnecting group
• Individual group
If the overall allocation count is reached, the groups with higher group priority values may not
be able to assign any cars.
