The following are two special conditions: Stations:
bit 3 is set at a terminal station (departure control applies here)
bits 2 reserved
bits 1 and 0 identify which station this is (00 = station 1, 01 = station
2, 10=station 3, 11=station 4)
bits 3, 2, 1 and 0 are a magnitude value (0..15) for brake and booster track segments. The value obtained from these four bits is multiplied by 7.6 km/hr = 4.5 mph. For RCT2 "Multi Diminsional Coaster", these four bits specify the amount of rotation.
