Hello I was wondering if anyone knows if 2 trains are supported in fs19? If not is there a way to join 2 splines together in the editor to make one loop?

I see no reason why multiple trains shouldn't work. Each spline can have one assigned train.
However the splines should be separated, no shared route usage. The train doesn't have collision detection like the AI cars.

have a question. what would be the formula for running a train directly from mod map?

I didn't try - but I think the earlier FS17 method should work also: spline with user attributes
<Attribute name="onCreate" type="scriptCallback" value="TrainSystem.onCreate"/>
<Attribute name="xmlFile" type="string" value="trainSystem.xml"/>

what determines the direction that the wheel's turn on train, have noticed that the wheels on train in my mod map are turning backwards, only changes to trainSystem xml was to add more crossings.

Are you sure it's not an optical illusion (stroboscope effect)?
The wheels should always turn according to direction of travel.

yea i am sure, i have 2 mod maps with trains installed, have used the zoom on control pad to get up close and barely move train, the wheels turned backward's from direction of train's movement, so i went in to game map did same procedure, wheel's turn correctly there.
