Turntables are short pieces of track on a mechanized structure that can be spun around along with a rail vehicle parked on it. They are typically found near train yards and serve as a way to change a vehicle’s orientation in a tight space, or to access radially placed parking tracks, such as at a roundhouse.

The driver must ensure that the turntable is properly aligned before bringing a vehicle on it. They must also ensure that the vehicle is positioned entirely within the turntable and clear of any obstacles, with its brakes secured, before engaging in spinning. With improper operation, massive damage to the vehicle can occur.

Turntables can be operated in four ways - via a lever in the small cabin next to the track, by manually pushing against the rod at the end of the track and, depending on the session difficulty settings, via UI in mouse mode and keyboard shortcuts.

Turntables produce a click sound when they align with a track.
