questions from a rookie

[arrivasuck]

i'm new to routebuilding so i apologise if i missed something, is it possible to have a delay on a signal clearing? i'm trying to simulate a locally monitered automatic crossing so i'm trying to create a 2 aspect signal where the signal will change from red to a proceed aspect x seconds after passing a certain location. also is it possible to have a similar signal that will clear x seconds after stopping without adding a station or is it possible to build a station simply where the doors won't open, this is for a trainman operated crossing.
thanks

try the pretrain command

Dummy .sta commands are generally done for "approach-control" signals so you may want to try that.
