The inserters are on top of the train but that doesn't make sense.

Thanks for the report,

However this is simply a limitation of 2d sprites in a 3d perspective, and would be pretty hard to fix without breaking anything else

Why don't you sort sprites by their position? As most things overlap what's a tile behind them but very rarely something in front, this would make sense as a general rule.

Then inserters one tile below a train would be invisible.

They wouldn't, how did you get that idea?

Inserters below a train would get drawn after it.
