## Properties

### timeline :: ProcessionTimeline

Used when leaving or arriving to a station.

### ground_timeline :: ProcessionTimeline optional

Used alternatively when landing to ground.

### usage :: `"departure"` or `"arrival"` or `"intermezzo"`

Arrival and Departure are to be referenced by name. All intermezzos are collected during loading and filled in by `procession_style`.

### procession_style :: uint32 or array[uint32]

Indexes used to match transitions from different surfaces together. Only a single intermezzo of a given procession_style may exist.

#### Example

    Going from Surface A -> Surface B
    Surface A has departures: [1, 3, 4]
    Surface B has arrivals:   [2, 3, 5]
    This trip will select:
    Departure 3 -> (Intermezzo 3) -> Arrival 3
