Given is a circular bus route with $n\geqslant2$ bus stops. The route can be frequented in both directions. The way between two stops is called [i]section[/i] and one of the bus stops is called [i]Zürich[/i]. A bus shall start at Zürich, pass through all the bus stops [b]at least once[/b] and drive along exactly $n+2$ sections before it returns to Zürich in the end. Assuming that the bus can chance directions at each bus stop, how many possible routes are there?
