No path for New Train
Ok so, as a little backstory for my experience on trains, I've set up 3 trains and they all work, they get there and back without any problems but my forth doesn't want to find it's own path, in fact, I taken the train around in a circle, I've used the U-turn myself, the station works, I took it back into my main station, and I went around a second time and parked it in my copper station, but It just wont find it's own path and I don't understand why. It finds it's way from the Copper station back to the main, but wont find it's way to the copper. I don't understand what I've done wrong.

Re: No path for New Train
Either provide pictures of the whole system, or even better - the save file itself.
I can't see anything wrong with the picture you have attached, so presumably the problem is elsewhere (or maybe I'm missing it too )

Here''s the save file, now you can look at the entire rail system, it's just the copper line that has trouble and it doesn't even go that far lol.

Re: No path for New Train
The train stop is not actually connected to the rails - it looks like you had at some point more straight rail, and then removed it.
If you mouse over the stop you can see it doesn't highlight the rails.
Moving the stop one or two tiles back should solve your problem (although you may need to re-align the inserters, so maybe just move the curved rail ahead and add another segment of straight rail).

Ahhh! That worked, not sure how I messed that up, thank you for your help!
Re: No path for New Train
It's an easy mistake to make, and easy to miss as the game doesn't give you indication that you removed the track segment.
I took the liberty of making a suggestion to add an indication, and linked back to here for example as to why it's needed - viewtopic.php?f=6&t=21778

That would be a fantastic addition and make things clearer, I'm glad my mistake was useful
