Hey everyone,

I like trains.
I was playing with multiple stations (With the same name) and things doesns't go as i want.
In bad ascii art the setup for that station is like this.
In => Split => => => => Split => => => => => Out
v => Station 1 ^ v => Station 1 ^
v => Station 1 ^ v => Station 1 ^

Now the problem is they always try to stay at the first 2 stations but never the last 2.
Anybody knows a way to fix this?

Added a screenshot for good measure.

they choose the closest station first unless it's blocked by another train

That's kinda the problem, they never get used even if the first 2 stations are blocked, creating a jam in the process.

It's hard to see on the image you posted, but it seems to me as if you have a signal on the wrong side, on the fork coming from the top bypass line towards the second set of stations, effectively blocking them.

Edit: Here, I marked the offending signal in blue:

You are right. Guess I did overlook something.

Thank you, I should've looked better at it
