Direction Reversal

Train Reverses its direction 1 times:

gollark: Great, it seems fine, apart from what looks like an unclosed database connection (I have no idea how to fix that).
gollark: I'm doing a very scientific test to see if the leaks are caused by my code by seeing if the total memory leak if I run it multiple times is greater.
gollark: Also tons of complaints about uninitialized values but that's *probably* fine!
gollark: Hmm, valgrind says 1152 bytes are "possibly lost". This is troubling.
gollark: I should really come up with my own horrible ISA/assembly language to make people suffer. And actually implement it, unlike PotatoASM.
