Do you mean a path from start to end?

Senjer gave a good explanation:
Senjer wrote:In the top of the screen are a couple of buttons. (When you have your mouse on it). Then click on load route and load the routes.ctd file. After that you can change your trainnumber. How that works can be found here: http://sim.bemined.nl/wiki/CVL_Tutorial
When the Route.ctd file is loaded, the CVL can automatically make paths for you when you are driving; it looks at your trainnumber to see where you want to go. For example; if you are at De Molens, and you want to go to Simvliet Airport, setting your trainnumber to 2011MT will be enough.

The trainnumber I just gave you (2011MT) is build up as follows;
201 -> the actual numer of your train, this can be any 3-digit number you like.
1 -> the lenght of your train.
M -> the origin of your train, in this case De Molens.
T -> the destination of your train, in this case Simvliet Airport.

When you reach your destination, you can change your trainnumber again to go somewhere else, like "2011TL" to go from Simvliet Airport to Lelywaard.

Also you can only set your own speeds with the editor, which is not available yet.

I'll give it a try, thanks for the effort though!

ML1 = De Molens, track 1
SVC3 = Simvliet Centrum, track 3
LEL2 = Lelywaard, track 2

And so on...
SDW = Stadionweg, ARA = Araplein, BGN = De Bergen, etcetera. ;)
