When you ghost plan a rail in front of an obstacle (so it cant continue) and then destroy that obstacle without letting go of the rail planner, the planner with still show the red x despite the path being clear.

Can you normally build over ghosts with the rail planner?

No. But if I stop planning and then plan again, the rail planner will still show instead of the red x.

This is a very specific situation. The rail path finder would have to somehow react to things being destroyed, or try to re-path again from closed locations, which would make it way less efficient, so I would say that this is not worth fixing.

A ghost won't replace a ghost. You'd need to first clear the "destroyed building" ghost (with the purple countdown bar) before the area is actually clear. If you don't ghost build the rails but actually build the rails directly, I think you could plow through a destroyed wall like this. Haven't tried it though.
