I was in a situation where I needed to have 2 different liquid output in a single station and this gave me an ideea of a suggestion similiar to how an assember circuit signal have for set recipe.

Can we have set new station name based on different conditions? This way one one condition is set the station will be renamed to A so all trains that contains the said resource can stationate there until the condition is met. Then rename the train station to B when needed the second resource type so all trains having that resources can stationate there.

Also see Dynamically change trainstop names richtext icons with circuit signals, Train Station should be allowed to change name by circuit.

I'd rather prefer not to change station itself, as it may lead to very difficult issues with routing and interrupts but allow train to propagate a constant signal and station to read this signal. This signal could be along with train id or replace it (does anybody even build any logic based on train id?) and would allow perform logic on station e.g. set filters for inserters or pumps.
