A technique I've used on Edinburgh, and Sheffield 1983 TT is to just have the one sticky with just one 4 letter word on it........'Next'.

Then it's clear enough which train will be wanting out first, to keep incomers away/around or held. Once it goes, just move it onto the next due departure. Come to think of it, it doesn't actually need any text on anyway.

Thanks for all your tips and tricks

As an aside, I use them, on Cambridge particulary, to remind me which end, of a coal train, the loco. was/is, when they are running round in the yard.
I also use them on the SLW scenario, to remind me where the Pilotmen are
