We have a rail yard where we often put down blueprints for new trains, or walk over and put the trains down by hand. When placing down a locomotive attaching to an existing cargo wagon, I expect that the orientation of the resulting locomotive matches the blueprint or ready-to-place item in hand. However, when the locomotive ends up partially on a curved rail, the orientation flips.
In the below video, you can see the following:
1. In the left two cases, placing by hand results in a flipped locomotive, since it ends up partially on the curved segment above it.
2. In the next two, placing by hand does not result in flipped locomotives, as they do not end up on the curved segments.
3. In the final two, the locomotives again flip, but this time through ghost placements instead of direct building by hand.

In the attached save, my character (MrRoboman4321) is right next to the rail yard shown in the video.
