Anylogic - Measuring time through multiple layers of a model

I'm simulating a train system and want to measure the time a passenger spends from entering the system to boarding. Entering the system happens on a higher, boarding on a lower level of the model. The problem is that the TimeMeasureEnd block doesn't see the TimeMeasureStart blocks on a different level. Does anyone have experience with this problem or an idea for a solution?

Edit: I call set_startObjects(TimeMeasureStart[]) in an event occuring once at the creation of the agent in the lower level and set either the start blocks of the one or the other parent, depending on what the parent is. The data is being collected in all child agents separately and displayed in separate histograms in each child agent. How can I accumulate all of them in one single histogram to display in main which is two layers above the child agent where the data is being collected?

you can always define the 'TimeMeasureStart' block dynamically in your 'TimeMeasureEnd' block. Just switch the entry mode for defining it to "static value" as below:

Now you can call on any 'TimeMeasureStart' object anywhere in the model, similar to below where it sits in 'Main': enter image description here
