These are actually four repeaters, three of which are used to run a precise clock. Each repeater consists of two derailers, coupled like this below: | These are actually four repeaters, three of which are used to run a precise clock.

There's a medium-friction track stop on each connection track, the final tile, under the pressure plate, is a corner sending the cart onto the "backwards" ramp of the partnered derailer. This results in the cart being so fast on entry that it derails over the ramp pit, slams into the wall and falls down onto the "forward" ramp. This greatly increases the time required to build up to derail speed, giving a full return time of 720 steps for each repeater. I started three of these repeaters 240 steps apart, so every 240 steps one "full round" signal is received and can be counted, five of them add up to a full day. | There's a medium-friction track stop on each connection track, the final tile, under the pressure plate, is a corner sending the cart onto the "backwards" ramp of the partnered derailer.
