    Current system kind of fails because there is no way to schedule trains or even simply space them out, they will always fall into feedback loops(especially passenger ones) that will clump them together one way or another.

    But even disregarding all that there is the very real life issue of freight passing trough a pax station without stopping. In my city there’s 2 different routes for trains that don’t stop in the station and just pass trough the city. there’s a single track bypass that’s the fastest way and will be used whenever it’s empty, however quite often there’s another train on it and the freight train has to pass trough the station itself in which case it will pass trough one of the 5 tracks depending on which one is empty at the time.

    You’ll find that similar situations happen a lot when lines have intense passenger and freight traffic on them at the same time, pax get the priority and their assigned platforms but freight will pass the stations trough different platforms at different times.

    Currently it is undoable in train fever, you end up building a big two lane bypass no matter what, while it works in the game it is not really realistic and it limits your choices/makes your network rather boring.
