Chain Signal not working / Train not choosing empty track

Greetings,

I am pretty new to trains and especially signals and chain signals. Either I don’t understand how they work, or they are not working ... so far, it takes roughly 5–10 seconds until the train finds the new path.

Re: Both trains have no path even though im using rail signals

If you click on either of the locomotives, you'll notice that the next stop is highlighted red, and if you hover over it it says "no stops with this name exist". It looks like either you renamed a train stop, or you moved/replaced it (resulting in a new randomly-generated name).
