Hmm i recorded the expected behaviour in 0.16.39 vanilla but the file is 186MB in size. A train waiting for the middle track reroutes as the top track gets free...

This doesn't look like a bug to me. The path you are suggesting is open also appears to be longer. A train in the path will increase the calculated relative distance, but both paths here have a pending train anyway.
