I don’t really see this as a huge problem, yes it has happened to me, and resulted in having a huge multi-train back up.
I can see how it happens, even with the game paused train routes are recalculated as you edit tracks, add a siding and a signal, and the route is instantly recalculated, so it makes sense that if you delete a section of track, any train that is on approach will turn around and try to find a new route.
Knowing it works this way, it’s easy to make a note of any train thats on the track system your editing and to check their direction of travel before you un-pause the game.
As for the idea Norfolk_Chris has “holding trains at terminals until the correct interval has elapsed before dispatch” That would be great to have, or even better “Dispatch Rules”, example, train A waits at station #1 until train B arrives at station #2
But I doubt we will see either, meanwhile I Try to space out my trains with blocks and signals, that seems to work
