[2.0.12] Train stays at disabled station after getting interrupted to go to a not disabled station with the same name.

[Snirp]

When a train is at a disabled station (or limit = 0) and gets interrupted to go to a station with the same name. It stays at the same station (or paths to the same station) instead of one that is not disabled.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Open the save file "Spage age 1.zip"
2. Look at the purple train "build train"
3. The train is interrupted by the signal and waits for the 5 seconds inactivity condition.
4. The train switches to "working" mode, and instantly switches back to "waiting at stop" without moving.
5. This goes on forever.

Expected behaviour:
When the train gets interrupted to go to "Build Station" it should go to the available "Build Station" on the rail underneath it.

As you can see on the image the train is stuck at the station and not moving.

When a train is at a disabled station (or limit = 0)

Did you actually try setting limit to 0? Because in my tests enable/disable doesn't change station limit. Disabled station displays limit as 0/None which is not the same as when I set limit to 0.

Just disabled

With limit set:

In fact, a train also stays on an enabled station unless the limit is lowered to 0. My guess is that train logic conditions are ordered in such a way, that the poor locomotive confuses current station with its next destination*.

EDIT: *Conditions order and some non trivial states related to time passage, movement and location in regard to station entity.

You are correct, the issue doesn't occur when the limit is set to 0 by sending a signal L=0, only when the station is disabled. I never bothered trying this because I read somewhere that it should be the same, but it isn't.
I guess I just need an extra combinator to send a L=1 signal when the station is active.

That being said, there is still a bug with that disabling a station does something different from setting a station limit to 0.

Yeah, that part about enable and limit comes from https://factorio.com/blog/post/fff-395:

So in 2.0, disabled trains stops will act as if they have 'Train limit = 0':

I hope that it is bugged because I really don't want to place a solar panel and a battery at every station just to send an L signal from a combinator.
