TL;DR
Make trains able to load furnaces from above.
What:
an addition with the verticality of trains coming where you can unload ore from underneath a train if you make a stop above furnaces. Maybe with an attachment you could make like a hopper or you could make it a type of track that could use your current colored belt as a base for item transfer speed.
Why:
the concept of raised trains going over furnace lines to load ore seems cool to me

Re: Trains and furnaces
I'm not sure I'd want to trivialize unloading so much to where it's direct to furnaces, and any bulk unloading/loading would need to be restricted (ores are the only ones that make sense to me) as otherwise it'd completely supplant normal unloading and make it pointless to use.
(And I know this was suggested before, but I can't seem to find it. Maybe it was only in the FFF on elevated rails?)

Re: Trains and furnaces
o_o That's nice one!
I believe it would make more sense in a form of dedicated "dump truck" like wagon though.
(seems perfect for transporting single type of items in bulk, as in real world)
