Working with Two Lines
When performing common tasks, you can let the station use the
primary line, or you can manually choose a particular line for each
task. Using the primary line makes common tasks much simpler, but
you will need to assign a primary line to each station (see below).

or press

). You can bypass the primary line assignment by
manually choosing line for your current task.
