I think you can solve that with upgrading the crossroad section, if the small “freigth road” is upgrated I think you won’t have that problem any more. It work for me in a older game.
If I understand it wright you have one train to ship out goods to both cities? Maybe there is the problem, try to have seperate services for each city. This might work for feeding the industry but I don’t think is the same for the cities. Also you must have activate the lines to the cities, don’t wait for industry to start producing and then buy the train. After a while playing I find out that industries don’t start up if you only carry away the products, you must have a complete circle of feeding and distributing the goods. Example dilivering oil from well to refinary doesn’t work if you haven’t set up also a line from refinary to town. It only works if the refinary ships out goods to the city on its own (but still you wont get enough yeld from the well). Use the cargo layer to check if the goods are going of the refinary on their own.
The game needs better signaling and switching, it will be nice if we have different signals like entrance and approaching, this will help to use all the potential of the train stations, like in locomotion and ottd. Also you must allow X crossing switches.
Try not to use “Depot Stations” in the cities, as when the city grows larger and traffic rises up, you will have big traffic jams and delays. Consider using the pass-through stops, they are cheaper and more easy to handle. I also suggest you to use both dirrections of a line, example you have 5 stops A,B,C,D and E. Setup a line that it goes A-B-C-D-E and another one that goes E-D-C-B and A. Makes more profit and it gives people the chance to travel faster around. I will post a screenshot later.
