Rails: How do You Control Juntions? (dormi.zone)

Hello everyone, A few friends of mine and I have gotten to the point in our multiplayer world where we've got several important locations connected through tunnels in the Nether. We're kinda old-school so we use rails in spite of the presence of more efficient options... thing is none of us are experts on rails. Anyone know how to set up a T intersection so that incoming traffic from two directions is always sent to the third and from the third either of the others may be selected?

A t junction rail can be flipped from one way to the other by powering the block it is sitting on. To direct 2 directions to 1 direction, you'd have an activator rail before the junction to switch the direction of the track if needed. You might be able to do this just by putting an activator rail directly before the junction? If not, use some redstone under the track or to the side.
