Is there a way to make a train go back and fourth repeatedly without completing a loop using Railroad And Co’s Train Controller software or Java Model Railroad? If so what are the steps using the software’s menu?
What you need is called a “shuttle-train control unit”, allowing your train to shuttle back and forth on a dedicated track. The German company TAMS offers such a unit, but I am not sure, whether this is available in the US.
Info in English you can find here!

I had it working for 6 months as a single trackcontrol then added another track and ran TWO trolleys back and forth. Looked neat. Took it off whenchanged layout.
